Question Adding Sirius Radio Can I Tie Into Existing Antenna

Added a Sirius radio to my Insight - it shares it with the House and Motorhome when we travel. I know the car can support an XM radio, is there a way to interface a Sirius radio to the existing antenna?

Welcom eboard.

Sorry, but the satellite radio requires a vertical grounding plane. You need a special antenna. I believe the one for the I2 fits on the windshield and is a through the glass type of antenna. There are plenty of aftermarket ones available online. I have the old shark fin the first gen sony xm radios came with.

Ok, I can buy a second antenna for the car or motorhome, was hoping that Honda had an integrated solution like Ford does in my wife's Fusion.
