OK, I added a custom aux input on the xm connector and the band button does not change the radio to xm mode to access the aux input. I talked to the dealer and they don't know what "programming" means. They say that they can "update" the radio software for $100. "Updating" does not sound like "programming" though. I spoke to "Specmo" technical hotline number they gave me and they said that if there is an input on the xm connector then the band button should work without any "programming" and actually they didn't seem to know what "programming" was either. Can anyone tell me which one has their head up their a$$?

I have a 2006 GT with Monsoon and XM is not activated. There is not even an XM receiver plugged into the back of the radio. The dealer doesn't know what I'm talking about when I mention the programming. If that harness works for you I will buy one too. Please keep us posted.

So you just plugged it into the XM port on the back of the radio and it just worked?
Yes, but you also have to unplug the 24 pin connector and put the harness inline as well as plugging in the XM connector. I can't find the link that I used but it had pictures of every step to pull the dash panels. It was very easy. Basically to pull the center console you have to pull the side panels first. The passenger side requires removal of the glove box. You'll waste more time reading the instructions than doing it. You can find the unit anywhere for $80.
