Default Let's see those interiors. Here's mine (with Sirius install)

I've had my car for a while, but I'm still in love with the quality, look, and feel of the interior; especially the wood, leather, and small chrome bits and pieces.

Whenever I see interior pics of the same car in a different color, it's just strange to me --- in a good way. And since I can't recall seeing any of these interior color combos posted on this site, here we go.

Oh, I also recently installed a Sirius sat radio in the car. The previous owner had a hands-free cellphone thing set up and the bracket where the radio is now located is where the old phone cradle was. Once you've had commercial-free and uncensored radio, you just can't go back. This unit lifts right off the cradle and can be placed in a radio inside the house or something like that.

It is inside on the dash, pretty much in the farthest corner of the passenger side. It's pretty much out of the way. You can see it in the first pic, but only if you're looking for it.

the seller says its grey leather at first then states it is dark cherry on black later in the same listing. u might want to ask him first to make sure

Denroll,

I'm putting a Sirius in my LS 400 and like you I want to minimize the wiring. How well does your system work with the antenna on the dashboard? Also, did you connect directly to the radio antenna or did you use the wireless setup?

Thanks

It works well enough on the dash, although it does cut out a lot easier under trees and such compared to my other car that has the roof mounted antenna. I've got a direct connection going.

I'm not sure, but this wood is even better looking in person. I love it.

Thanks Denroll, I put in the system yesterday and put the antenna on the back shelf. So far so good, even driving down a couple of tree lined streets today.

I've got the wireless connection for now but will probably go with the direct connection.
