Alice Hill at Real Tech News offers a rundown on how to install and activate a satellite radio for the car, using a Sirius StarMate satellite unit, plus FM transmitter (via cigarette lighter socket) and remote control. We freely admit to our lack of automotive electronics acumen (and our OCD-level hatred for hanging wires), but it actually seems simple enough for even us to do, without erasing our eyebrows (don't ask). The complete lack of static, however is something we'd really have to get used to.
