can I share this between my two cars? I use one car for my daily in city driving and the bigger car for long trips. Can this product move between ?

Yes. However, you'll probobly want to get a second antenna for the second car since running the antenna cable is something you most likely won't want to do more rhan once per car..
1338895
Sure, as long as you don't install it. I take mine out and use it in a rental car now and then.

As long as you have two docking systems, one for each car, you can use the same radio head between the two cars. I have one car I use daily and another I only use periodically. I have one subscription, one radio head, and two docking systems and I use the radio in both vehicles.
1338897
Yes but you have to completely take everything out of one car and put it in the other.. The better thing to do would be to buy 2 radios and tie them to the same account.

I didn't permanently install my antenna either so yes, you can move between cars. Not practical to do everyday. Okay in scenario you gave.
1338899
Yes it can be moved, the XM account is for the readio. however, you will need a nother mounting bracket and antenna, those cannot be moved easily. I think they sell a kit for that?

Kate, yes you could move this between cars. The wiring to the antenna is tucked in and it wouldn't be ideal but it would work. Plus you can use in the house also when hooked up with speakers. My car installation is temporary so I can move around. But check with XM for pricing on the unit with a subscription.

Yes, it can be moved easily, just plug into a power outlet (cigarette lighter), antenna and your AUX jack. As the most time consuming part of the move is installing the antenna I'd recommend you purchase a second antenna for about $20 at Best Buy and leave one in each car.

Yes the unit can e shared. The XM account works with the radio. However, for the other vehicle you will another mounting bracket and antenna. Those items cannot e changed easily. I think they sell a kit for that?

Absolutely. Just bring along the existing power supply and antenna, and cassette adaptor if you'll be using that in the second vehicle. I've used mine in rental cars, so it's perfectly fine to use in multiple vehicles.

Not tow of the same car, unless it specifies "variable channel/frequency" Look for cars that name what frequency they use, then choose two using different frequencies, or at least one that has the variable frequency. If they are on the same frequency, the cars will get confused whether they're taking orders from you or your buddy, if that makes sense. I did the above and it is great fun to race them against each other! good luck.

There are two parts -- the base and the holder. I have moved it several times with no issues (it suctions to the base or window, etc.). The base has adhesive on the bottom of it so it is not easily moved. If you want it for two cars, I would see if You could get two bases.

It probably wouldn't be easy to transport for your purposes. It's not all that heavy, but it would be a pain to move it in and out of your car that often. It's a little bit too big for that to be convenient.

I have taken mine from vehicle to vehicle with no problem. Keep in mind you don't want to cut the wires too short on the radio because you lose a little bit of wiring each time you move from vehicle to vehicle when you cut the butt connections or however you made the connections to your vehicle. The answer is yes you can.

When I purchase mine I had to purchase another device to adapt it to my vehicle. That seemed to be a common need for most of application. There may be some brands that have both devices in one box.

I have mine set on "City" because that is where I do most of my driving. If I leave town, I set it on "Hwy".Decide where you do the most driving and leave it set there. It should work fine...mine does.

I think you can use it. But, don't waste your money, I bought two. Both broken in less than two days (different cars, different users). A nice idea but cheap construction.

I believe you can. Upon installation it will ask you what year vehicle you are installing it on, just choose the appropriate year. However, it can only be installed on one vehicle at a time so it would need to be uninstalled from the first truck before moving on to the second one.

NO! What this means is the remote can be used on two different vehicles if they each have separate units installed in them. It is a nice perk. I installed one in my wife's car. Bought another and installed in my truck. I can use the remote to start either car. I always add that installing these things is not easy - I've done 10+ and they take me a half a day at least.

it's not for the transmission is the weight of the keys, where you enter it, it can cause damage on the car key. because is too heavy , you can use it for another keys.

You can buy just one and use it on two vehicles at different times. I used it on my charger and challenger

You would likely have to take it apart which I have not done yet. Once you have it apart then it should be easy to move and load into a regular sized car. When it was all together in one box I was not able to lift it myself, but when I was putting it together I think I was able to move everything around on my own. If you left it together you should be able to move it with someone helping, and fit it in a moving truck, but not a car. Now you have me wondering what I will do when I move next... :)

You can make it work but it is not a clean fit. Worked fine for my long trip but it is a little cumbersome to get in and off.

Hi. Sorry for the late response. Yes you can do it that way but its better to change both at the same time your under the car

Please do not keep these items in the same room with each other. It would be like buying the cheapest tires possible for your Ferrari - you might not like the result.

I would say it would be tricky. We have tried transfers in our van from passenger front seat to driver's front seat, and the board wants to rise up on the end without weight. As my transferee is pretty heavy and has little upper body strength, we have abandoned that approach. I believe the transferee needs to have the ability to shimmy from one side to the other to effectively transfer using the board safely. That is my take anyway. Hope it is useful
