John,

I noticed mention of this in the G3X Installation Manual. I have version M.

Look for installing with generic brackets.

Enjoy,
Russ

Default XM option on g3x touch

I tried asking garmin and I spent an hour on the phone with XM. They could not give me a for sure awnser either. The question is...

If you get a g3x touch with the XM option, can you pay for just music and no weather? If so what is the cost of that?

Basically XM can not answer the question without a radio id.

Thanks,

Jason

I would say yes since every time they have a trial, I get free music with no weather subscription.

There should be no reason you can not subscribe only to the music service. The XM receiver status screen shows the level of subscription. When I periodically add XM music, the status screen then shows that service as subscribed.

Steve,

Is there a plan to update the GDU-375 units to the SXM recievers?

Hello John,

We don't have drawings showing how to perform these servo bracket changes, but you shouldn't have any trouble making these adjustments when the time comes. We made them on a finished airplane.

Thanks,
Steve

Hello Ray,

We don't have any immediate plans to make the hardware and software changes required to do this, but haven't ruled it out as a possibility.

Again, we understand that no changes are planned anytime soon for the subscription services supported by the GDU 375.

Thanks,
Steve
