XM/SIRIUS in a first gen 4runner?

Anybody have xm/sirius in a first gen 4runner? Where did you mount the control unit? Too bad they don't make one that fits below the radio utilizing the double-din.

If you don't already have an aftermarket stereo, I'd recommend getting one which can digitally control XM/Sirius (depending on which service you're going to use). I have a Kenwood (does XM and Sirius) and I plan on getting the antenna and tuner unit. I have an Alpine unit in my '05 Subaru with Sirius and the sound is much better than some friends I know who have the add on units. Plus, the sound quality overall by just adding an aftermarket stereo is well worth the upgrade.

You probably need an antena and a receiver unit... at least that is what i needed to get sirius with my kenwood.
