The Blitzsafe connects to the CD changer port in the boot which then connects to the Direct box. I managed to get both behind the moulding in the boot so they are invisible. Put the XM antenna somewhere that can see the sky (as you can see from my pics I haven't worked out how to do that neatly yet) and you have XM on the head unit, you can use it with the MFSW if you have it, too. It's so much better than mounting a SkyFi unit somewhere like I did in the '02.

When I was back in England last trip I joked about getting a hula girl for the dash and said to my sister that a british bulldog would be funny. Well, walking around Exeter later that day, she found one and gave it to me as a present! Yeah, the bulldog is too cool!

I though only the Sirius could be used with that. Maybe you could share more about how you did that :-) Nice job getting the XM into the factory head unit.
