Will be installing a Pioneer AVH-X2800. Adding the Sirius Tuner. Any way to use the OEM Sirius Antenna,FActory USB, and Bluetooth Mic? Or am i stuck having to add the aftermarket ones?
Thanks in advance

XM depends on where the factory XM tuner is located and if it is a proprietary plug or not. If tuner is in radio itself and will plug into the sxv300 or not. Chances are you will have to use the pioneer microphone.

Wanted to update. I used the HYKIA-USB. Worked good for charging and for playing music off a USB thumb drive. I got a "incompatible USB message on the Pioneer head unit when trying to connect a iphone.
I was able to remove the outer casing of the Sirius antenna wire and plug it right in to the Sirius tuner. I ended up using the Pioneer Bluetooth mic. posted_image
