From Audiovox the XM CommanderMT universal satellite radio receiver sends XM signal to any FM car stereo, regardless of what make, model, or year your car is using the FM modulator included in this package. Updated from the original XM Commander, the new CommanderMT adds support for the XM Mini-Tuner.

More than a plug and play, the newly renovated CommanderMT is meant specifically for the car by integrating the slim, sleek faceplate seamlessly into the dashboard. But to incorporate the added mobility of the plug-and-play, the CommanderMT now works with the removable XM Mini-Tuner cartridge, rather than the bulky tuner box. Therefore, if you want to take your XM with you, just pop the small MiniTuner into your pocket, instead of the entire tuner assembly.

The CommanderMT is essentially targeting those who want to keep their existing headunit whether it be an aftermarket or stock headunit. The manufacturer of the CommanderMT is essentially recommending a professional install, although the install of the CommanderMT is not much different than the XM Commander. With the recent FCC-mandated changes to the FM modulator, the install requirements for any plug-and-play unit are a little more complicated, but not that much more.
