Yes you can use this year's radio if you have a stereo jack that could fit in the back of the jukebox yes it does light up and changes different colors And is worth every penny Two buy

no such thing as a "dumb" question--yes it will work on sirius and does a fine job

Chad - No, this unit requires the SNYSC1 Sony-Sirius connect interface AND the Sirius SCC1 satellite tuner. When shopping, I found most of the head units required minimally the tuner, and many needed also the interface. Once installed, everything works seamlessly through the dash controls and the interface parts are hidden behind the dash somewhere. Simple hookup if you have room to tuck things away - I just used 3M foam double-sided tape to mount the parts behind the radio.

Yes, but it's NOT backlit. So you'll need some light shining on the face of the radio to read the display.

It is "Satellite Radio Ready" - to have it actually work, you need to buy the SXV200V1 Tuner (about $50) and of course, have a plan. http://www.amazon.com/SiriusXM-SXV200v1-Connect-SiriusXM-Ready-Receivers/dp/B007T0NM2M/

You can press a button to light the dial. My radio died within 30 days of purchase. I bought a simple Radio Shack model for $40 that tunes and holds stations better, and has better fidelity. I would put the CC in the cheap junk category.

I'm not sure about Sirius, but it only reproduces audio from apps (such as Whatsapp) when connected via bluetooth if you're using it as a media player.

I have an Onyx XM radio and it uses the 5V. The Starmate looks like an enhanced version of the Onyx. The way to know for sure is call Sirius and ask a tech what voltate that particular radio uses. The device works flawlessly on my motorcycle for the Onyx. The other question you need to ask them is if the power connector is the same on both radios.

I have not done so but it may be worth your while to call either sony or the sirius radio provider that question or try it yourself and see what happens!!

It comes Sirius xm ready. You would still need to by the receiver kit separately which is roughly 50$.

Uh, you need to be more specific about this question.If you bought the Sirius adapter and have a valid membership (or if they give you a free try) then you would need to go into the source panel and then select Sirius XM. I don't know what you meant with "automatically"

You will need the SiriusXM SXV200v1 tuner. The cable needed is included with the unit so it is plug and play.

I see why it wold not work. Mine works with my phone and it plays the Sirius app, GPS, and radio.

This unit should, it has a shut down option, but otherwise, it stays on until you shut it down. I do not know about any other xm/Sirius units. Hope this helped you.

Don't believe so. Sirius and XM, while now a single company, still have pretty incompatible hardware. I think this also applies to remotes, since they're still sold separately.
