Thats a good question ! You could use a timed relay. I know dei has one that is adjustable up to 90 seconds i believe. Or you could turn down the volume to the radio before you turn the key off. I would imagine that you talking about how the xm turns off but the radio stays on. GM and there accessory wire for the radio suck ! it is only a 6v wire.
