Default Sure, might be a cost to you. They might be able to do a swap for you.

If they won't you can buy an XM rcvr at Clairparts.com for ~$400 and swap yourself.

Check carefully. A while back someone posted different part numbers for the two antennas, thus different shark fins. If the antenna isn't the right one, some say reception deteriorates.
