Made for the Road. Compact Size.

My last radio didn't have an artist alert in it, which I love. This radio is well worth the money and I haven't had any problems. I install everything I buy myself. Very easy to do!

I'm using this on a Company Vehicle 2022 Ram Promaster City van stock Radio which has no 1/8 audio connector, so I am using this Bluetooth one. I used a quarter size washer, applied double sided tape and stuck it at the front center bottom of the windshield. This allows the magnetic antenna end mount to not move about and is rock solid. I used double sided Velcro tape for the channel unit mounted and used locked car tape cable guides for routing.Sound is actually clearer (high fidelity) than the Stock Radio and has the perfect highest volume on the stock radio I am using. Bluetooth connection was pretty straight forward pairing it just fine. It does take about 1min every time at vehicle startup before the Radio recognized it can get paired automatically again.Only snag I encountered was occasional cracking sound infrequent at random times. I fixed that for the most part by adjusting the 1/8 connecter to the receiver to be solid at the right angle. It rarely crackles now. I don't lose reception except in weird areas in town I would lose Sirius signal anyway (IE airport deadspots).Highly recommend the SiriusXM Roady BT Vehicle Satellite Radio if at least one of your vehicles needs Bluetooth or you are not allowed to modify the vehicle to get an internal connection.

Think about it, we pay for cable TV, satalite TV, streaming apps but yet still listen to nonsense FM radio. This is a serious upgrade and will work anyplace, no more scanning channels trying to find something to listen to. Listen to the same radio station coast to coast throughout the US, no extra charges for roaming fees like on your cellphone. This is the only way to listen to quality radio, no b.s. commercials, no annoying dj's, and no reception issues. Sirius XM is the best!

We wanted Sirrus radio in our Monaco RV so we can listen to NASCAR the factory radio is one and a half din making replacement a bit of a pain so I purchased this and OMG glad I did installation was so simple I only had to plug it into the RVs Aux port and power comes from a cigarette lighter/power port and we were off to the races!

Took some time to get this working but after multiple updates it finally works. BUT, the bluetooth connection does not work with Android Auto/Car Play radios. (something to do with licensing) so having to use the AUX output. This is where the next round of issues started. Since the power/antenna/audio out are all part of the plug that goes in the cigarette lighter, it adds LOTS of engine noise to the sound. Ordered a ground isolator that plugs in line with the 3.5 mm jack and problem solved. But still a little upset that the bluetooth function does not work. Another very minor complaint is the layout of the screen. The album cover art for for songs is very small and lots of blank/wasted screen. Could be a nicer layout, but again that's very minor. It does work, and has good signal strength.

I had an older radio playing through FM. Due to increasing interference, I wanted Bluetooth connection. Installation of the Roady BT was easy and even connecting was pretty straightforward. Satellite radio works very well in areas where the phone does not get reception. I get that a lot in flyover country. The reason I dinged this item is the Bluetooth connectivity. I have a 2014 Mercedes GLK that was not equipped with satellite radio. Every time I try to use the Roady BT, I have to pair the unit new to the car radio. While the car shows the Roady BT in the device list, the Roady DOES NOT show “MB Bluetooth” like my iPhone does. The iPhone connects without fail every time I turn on the car. The Roady shows “No Bluetooth Connection” and I have to go through the pair routine to connect. Once it’s paired, I can listen to the satellite channels without problems, until I turn off the car. When restarting the car, repeat the pairing routine. The iPhone reconnects again every time when Bluetooth is on. If I turn off the iPhone Bluetooth, the car is searching for other devices and does actually find the Roady and tries to connect. But because the Roady only connects to “Unidentified Device” instead of “MB Bluetooth” the handshake is incomplete and the car shows the external device as “turned off”. That Is a software problem in the Roady. I complained to SiriusXM and the answer I received was “Roady BT does not work with any 2014 Mercedes”. That is just hogwash. Bluetooth is an interface to connect devices with each other. If the handshake between the devices is accurately programmed, it will work! The programming in the Roady BT needs to be upgraded and can be downloaded like any other changes. Until they fix the pairing, the one star rating will remain from me. I returned my reply to SiriusXM, explaining the problem in detail, but to date have not heard anything back. About 4 weeks now. As an analyst/programmer/software designer/developer with 50 years of experience, I learned a little bit about these things! If the Roady BT does not work properly for my car, it may not work properly for your car either.

Very happy...

Only giving 3 stars because you can not purchase accessories for it. I was looking for additional chargers to be able to easily switch between vehicles and home but sirius xm does not offer them for this model. Item works as advertised and it fairly easy to setup. It is great because it has built in Bluetooth and aux adapter.
