Anyone have the dealer install factory Sirius?

Looking to purchase a new F150 but an having trouble finding one configured how I want it. Found the perfect truck but no factory Sirius. Sales guy said they can add it no problem but I'm wondering?

Talking Place the antenna correctly

As long as the dealer is doing the installation, IF they are drilling thru the roof, ask them to center the antenna. I am so pi$$ed at how ford was too cheap to spent the three cents to add enough coax to have centered the antenna's in the first place.

The aftersell factory ford sirius kit for the stock radio comes with a magnetic mount external antenna, it is not a drill through installation. You will be able to request a location, or move it later, if you prefer.

In the same boat, but purchased it before I knew it!

I also purchase a new 06 F150 that had the single CD/ radio in it and the dealer told me the same thing....no problem. Well, it is a problem, unless you have the satellite ready radio. It seems they can't even switch radios and get me the Sirius. They say I have to use the aftermarket Sirius with the little display. I am very upset that they promised something they can't produce just to sell me the truck. If I could I would return the Truck and tell them I'll buy a Chev!!

I have spent the last 3 days looking around trying to find something that will work. I don't want to lose the steering wheel controls or the speed volume control. I am willing to change radios, but don't know if a new one will even fit, work or look right. Am I at a complete lost!

Any help would be nice.

Thanks
