Sirius or XM Radio available?

Purchased an F150 in January with the audiophile sound system. Anyone know if this equipment is compatible with satellite radio?

I just want something that will plug into my receiver and not have to have any "add-on's" or extra remote controls, etc.

My dealer wants to sell me something of the above for $250, but I don't trust that is the best option. Is there a source from Ford for info?
Thanks.

    I have a 2003 Ford F-150 SC and I just brought Sirius today and the only problem that I have is static. Tomorrow I will take it to Circuit City and have the correct this problem.

    Did you replace the factory unit with the Sirius, or did you add an FM modulator? If the modulator, where did you install?

    Also, where does the antenna mount?

    I did not have to remove the factory radio, it came with a seperate receiver for the Sirius system. No FM madulator was needed.
