SiriusXMSXEZR1V1 Onyx EZR Satellite Radio with Vehicle Kit - Enjoy SiriusXM in Your Existing Car Stereo and Beyond with This Dock and Play Radio

When I first installed this radio, the reception was bad even though I was getting maximum signal strength. I called up Sirius and spoke with several techs. They sent me refresh signals and had me do a couple other things; none of which resolved the problem. Finally the last tech that I spoke with suggested that the radio was defective. He advised me to return it to Amazon. Amazon has an amazing return policy; so I did. Well it turned out that there was nothing wrong with the radio at all. I found out that if you want good reception, you need a direct connection to the car or have it plugged into to an auxiliary input if your car has one. I ended up purchasing an Onyx Plus from Amazon which is awesome. I connected it directly to my car radio. The EZR version was 10.00 less; decent radio, but less features. Thanks to Amazon for helping me out. Now I have a radio with excellent reception and features.

Got it for my husband for his big rig and it works perfectly

I was going to spend $600 to have a SiriusXM put into my truck. Glad I found this. No real installation needed. Glue down the mount (sticky mount included), plug in the power, run the antenna, tune your factory radio to an FM channel, tell the XM what that channel is and you got music. I now have great sound for about 1/10th replacement would have cost. When it warms up (I live in Colorado) I will spend the time to run the antenna wire so the antenna is centered on my roof with no wire showing. The only drawback is the size of the text that shows channel and what is playing. But for the money it is great

I love SiriusXM, specially when you travel around areas without or with poor phone signal, it's a lifesaver.Also I like to listen different things from different genres and listening radio hosts talking and not having to find new radio stations several times in a long trip is more than welcome.My previous car had SiriusXM natively and I loved the TrafficNav function (something that I really miss up to this date), however my current car don't have SiriusXM, probably because of the Apple CarPlay and I tried the longest to adapt getting used to listen SiriusXM using the APP and using other music apps, but whenever I have a roadtrip to make, I either forgot to download musics or didn't download enough musics so eventually I was left without signal for hours in the desert or mountains so without music, without radio stations scanned or listening things on loop.This kit first popped for me on the SIriusXM Newsletter and I found it an interesting solution but was pricy and backordered (only home kit available) so I resorted to amazon and was pleased that not only was cheaper, but was readly available and on the car kit format.A quick research on Youtube allowed me to learn how to install and was relatively quick and easy but without the tips on videos like using something without edges like a credit card to assist tucking the antenna cable I probably would have damaged the cable.Differently of most that installs on the front, I decided to install on the back of the car with the cable running under the car carpet and thru the trunk gate mechanism and worked great and I can open and close my trunk not worried about damaging the cable since the sealing rubber is soft not creating much pressure to the antenna cable that is really thin (to be able to be tucked away) which makes it fragile.It does work fine and the process to transferring my subscription to it was quick and easy but I had to do thru a phone call because on the app or website it wasn't allowing me to do.The navigation is simple and easy (not as was using the infotainment but is close enough and because it has a numpad if you know the channel number it saves a lot of time too).The thing that I really don't like is the nightmare the cable management is, just this device have three cables connected to it (Power, Antena and Aux) which creates a chaos specially because I have the Antenna coming from the carpet, the aux coming from the Central armrest storage and the Power coming from the center console near the gear shifter.My solution was to assign a few radios I listen the most and what I did was instead sticking the screen on the dashboard or so, I just leave it inside the central armrest so at least 2 of the cables are out of the way, with just the power cable crossing from the central console and when I travel I just leave it on the passenger seat.To avoid this, if this unit had the option to connect thru bluetooth would be amazing.Also the AUX Cable that comes with it has really poor quality so the sound is actually much lower than it should compared to regular radio or CarPlay audio level.All in all I'm glad to have a SXM unit that don't depend on internet as it should be, but I wish it was a little more polished of a product than it actually is.

My 2018 Honda CRV LX did not come equipped with a Sirius XM radio. I searched online for the best radio deals and found the Sirius XM Stratus 7 which I thought would be easy to install myself. I called one of the local car stereo places for advice on how to install it and they informed me that I would have to purchase additional equipment such as a FM adapter and special antenna connector. You would also have to remove the existing car stereo form the dash board which looked to be a challenge of it's own. I was dissatisfied with the extra work and parts that were needed so I called Sirius XM customer service. They suggested I try the ONYX EZR car stereo kit instead due its ease of installation. The unit was simple to install. Th only connection needed was the power supply that plugs into an available power outlet. You simply look up FM stations in your local area through the Sirius website and tune your XM radio to the FM frequency on your car radio. Its that simple and I would recommend this radio for it low cost, high quality sound and how easy it is to install.

Easy to use and to take with you vehicle, to boat, to rv. Does require a separate subscription.

It's your basic radio. Doesn't have glowing exciting colors. It's very easy to install. Easy to save your favorite channels. I have an Sirius XM subscription. Took no time at all to refresh the signal. It took more time for me to hide the wiring and make it neat n nice. Lol. I like it and would recommend.
