Guys,
I finally got around to finishing the install on my Pioneer XM tuner to GM RDS factory head unit. I posted some new pics for all to refer to. See the sig.
Pioneer 910 XM tuner: $100.00
Terk XM3 Antenna: $49.00
Soundgate PIOGM1 interface:$99.00
Total: $248.00
Listening to XM without FM modulation and having a factory looking install: Priceless!
Well not priceless, but I'm happy.

I have a 2002 and am looking for a way to install a XM unit in the truck. I'd prefer something direct connected rather than a cassette or even an FM modulator. I'm already using a FM modulator for the VCP/DVD system and I'd even like to get rid of that somehow.
Any ideas from you electronic gurus??

MinnDmax,
I've got a Pioneer 900 XM tuner for sale in the classifieds.
Firstdiesel,
Theres lots of good info at xmfan.com
If your 2002 has an RDS radio I think your o.k.
If not, you'll probably need to go with a P.I.E. adapter.

Okay, what is a RDS radio??
I have the radio with the CD player in it with the cassette deck mounted in the console.

I believe it stands for Radio Data System. Usually has a little RDS on the face plate of the stereo. Check this link for options for hooking up XM to your truck.
