Sirius ready?

In late model units with the radio/CD/DVD players.....are they "Sirius" ready?

I have the boombox Sirius radio now with antenna.
It's bulky and I was hoping to somehow not use it.

What is the preferred way to get Sirius programing over the OEM radios installed on late model travel trailers?

I think I need a dock, as I have the head unit and the antenna now.
Do I need to tune to a certain FM channel to receive that signal?

How would I bring it all together?

The radio/stereo which came in the Fuzion is bluetooth ready. I have paired my iPhone with it and already used the Sirius, Pandora and Music applications to play content from the Internet through the stereo. You must have cell service and an adequate data plan but it is one option.

Ok thank you.....
I don't have an internet capable phone nor will I be in an area that has cell service, nor over the air radio signals.
I have to depend on the Sirius satellite to receive any sort of signal.

The Sirius boombox I have now works great in any area I am in.
I know it can be done......my truck has a Sirius capable radio and works great anywhere I go.
I am more often than not, out of range for over the air broadcasts so a Sirius unit is indispensable to me.

So I was checking out the manual for the stereo. It's a Sony WXGT90BT. It says it is Sirius Ready using a SiriusXM Connect Vehicle tuner. The description under one of these on their site says:

"Connect, control and enjoy all the wonders of satellite radio on the sly. The compact SXV300 tuner is truly plug-and-play with compatible car stereos and installs easily and discreetly behind the dash for a fully integrated look."

This is probably more what you are after then.

Thanks again Matt.......this does sound like what I am needing.
I have not personally seen the TT I am about to buy and cannot say what brand radio system is.
I will consult with the dealer tomorrow to learn more.

The stereo system in my trailer has a USB port on it and I just copy 32G worth of music files over, from my music library in the truck, to a small thumb drive.

The music interface, in the radio, is pretty crude, but it will play whatever mp3 files you put on the thumb drive, in artist alphabetical order (there is a shuffle mode, but it only seems to shuffle inside the album folders).

I am not sure if the unit will recognize any thumb drive larger than 32G... it definitely choked on a 128G and I did not have a 64. 32G of MP3 files is quite a bit of music
