Sirius and Aftermarket HU

I am going to be installing either the Alpine W205 or the Kenwood DDX-8019. Does anyone know if I can use my OEM Sirius tuner and antenna with either of these units or do I have to buy Sirius tuners specifically made for them?

Most HU's require a tuner specific to their brand device. They generally have a different style plug on each one.

Whether the factory would work with one of those? no idea... I highly doubt it.

Crutchfield has a deal right now for $50 off the $100 tuner if you buy a stereo from them. - FYI

Thanks for the reply, does anyone know if my OE HU from my 06 F150 will fit in my 2002 E250?

And also, how does Sirius work if you want it in 2 vehicles, do you have to pay for 2 full subscriptions?

Sirius (unless the rates have changed) is $12.99/mo for one subscription and $6.99/mo for each additional tuner.
