Hello all,

I just wanted to drop in to say Hi and ask a few questions. First timer here.

I just got an HHR and I love it, but it is a base model and I was wondering how to possibly upgrade a few features.. hopefully without breaking the bank.

I am currently looking for stock rims (have steel wheels), a front drivers seat (would like a power seat, plus there is a noticable hole in the cloth) and and a stock radio with XM. The rims and the seat may take me a while to find, (not even sure if I can replace a manual seat with a power one) but I was wondering how I can go about finding and installing the XM component for the radio. Do I need to purchase a stock radio that is already XM compatible or can I just take the radio out, install the component the way they would have in the factory, and voila.. satellite radio? Forgive my ignorance but GM cs said the Onstar and XM work independantly of each other so I assume that either the radio itself has a component in it, or is assembled with it.

Thanks in advance for your help. Hope I am in the right thread.
