Aftermarket only. You may not be able to get a connector that plugs into your factory stereo. If not, you are stuck with an XM unit with the FM transmitter, or if you have a mobileunit, the Tribute has an auxillary input that will give you good quality sound, unlike the FM transmitter. See if there's an XM unit with an audio out and you are fine, but without integration to the LCD readout on the dash.

thanks justin, i am willing to get sirius from the dealership, but they want to knock my head off with the price, $400 plus with installation, now i found this sirius unit on a search,http://www.mazdaparts.org/mazdatribu...literadio.html , is the the one the dealership installs andif so if i purchased this could i install it myself without violating any warranty?

Better yet, buy one from me, make sure you give me your vehicle info, and I'll make sure you get the right unit. Use this link to order.

Get me your email, and I will send you a .pdf with install instructions. Then you can decide if you want to do it yourself. It shouldn't be too hard, but you do have to remove a lot of interior panels to wire it.
Also, the price of my satellite unit includes the required installation (wiring) kit. I don't think the other one does.
