I doubt they have XM or Sirius in Poland. So not a silly question.

On a somewhat related point: I just noticed that the "sharkfin" antenna at the rear is officially the GPS antenna, I guess the small mast attached to it is the XM/Sirus/OnStar/digital antenna.

Whatever you do, don't mess with the digital boxes. If you disconnect the OnStar box you will have lots of problems. Best to just ignore them, just think of them as "magic black boxes" that are necessary for unknown reasons.

I was thinking about that too. Some have the whip; is that a difference between XM and Sirius?

The rear "stubby" must be only for OnStar then?
