Question
How do I know if my stereo supports satellite radio?  It has the in-dash 6 disk CD changer.

Answer
Not many of that vintage did - directly.  

You can try going to www.crutchfield.com and run through their outfit my car sequence.  Crutchfield are the experts on these kinds of interface questions.

I don't know if there is a SAT adapter kit for your vehicle or not. You can search around installer.com to see what you can find.  Try this link:

and this one:

http://www.modifiedlife.com/2005-nissan-pathfinder-with-bose-audio-wiring-diagra

Depending on the Satellite system you are using you may be able to run the audio into an aux or ipod type input adapter kit.

Hope this helps.

PS:  If you need a second opinion try Ernesto also on Audio Systems ALLEXPERTS who has good experience in installing these items.
