Satelite radio receiver?

I want to add a Satellite radio receiver to a 2011 Cayman Base car. Any suggestions as to brands/models will be appreciated. I would like to find one that doesn't take up too much space in the ****pit.

TIA

If your vehicle is equipped with Bluetooth you can stream from you phone this was you don't need to install any additional equipment.

If you figure out how to stream BT audio in a 2011 Cayman, please let me know how you did it. I have the same car with PCM 3.0 v.2.2 software.

BT phone works fine and the manual indicates to stream audio you have to select bluetooth source for the AUX input. However, that option isn't there in my car to do that. When I contacted the dealer about this to see if a software update would fix that, he told me that it was not offered on the Cayman in 2011 and that there is no software upgrade available for my car.

Anyone get this to work on a 2011 Cayman?

I don't mind adding a SAT receiver as long as it doesn't look like a sore thumb or compromise comfort or safety. Do any of you wish to share a picture of a receiver mounted in your car? TIA

Great idea. My Spyder has bluetooth so I can do as you suggested. Thanks
