Question Anybody using Sirius integrated into NAV/ML in GS430?

I've been searching the forums alot, and from what I've found the only thing available for 2nd Gen GS430 is the VaisTech adapter. Is anybody using this on a 430? XM is not an option, Sirius only.

Default Update

Called VaisTech today, their product will not integrate with NAV/ML. I'm going to see if there is a Sirius unit that will fit in the ashtray...

I installed the Sporster 4 on my car about 1 week ago. Sirius is nice, great coverage.

Yea, I wish VaisTech had their product available for our cars. It would be way sweet to have it integrated into the navigation. I had the Starmate for a year and then just upgraded to the S50 about a month ago. I have one of those support things that you attach to the bolt on the passenger seat and you attache the unit to the top of it and you can move it around. With the Starmate it was a real pain because I move the radio from the car to my office every day. Having to disconnect/re-connect 3 wires both in the car and at my office was a real pain. With the S50, it comes with a docking pod for the car and the office so all I do now is remove it from one docking station to the other with no problems. I could take some pictures for you if you want but it sounds like you want more of a permanent mounting. I just bought my wife an 07 GX470 and I am about to order the VaisTech SLS for that since it is full integration Anyway, good luck and Sirius is great.
