2019 AXIS Sirius XM??

We just bought a 2019 T23. There's a black box under the observer seat that says "xm ready" but looks like I need to purchase an antenna and receiver for it to work. I've searched around and can't seem to find much info on what options there are. The info that I have found looks like a lot of people just buy a kit made for automobiles. I'm wondering if anyone out there has installed xm on your boat and what you used? I'd prefer to buy a kit made specifically for the boat made to mount on the tower if it's an option over a generic model for cars...

The protocol is universal these days, so there is really only one receiver you need. Antenna wise, I prefer the larger surface mounted marine SAT antennas compared to the small square ones that you typically see come with a SAT receiver. https://shop.siriusxm.com/siriusxm-sxv300-connect-vehicle-tuner.html

Thanks for the reply. I'll probably just buy the receiver and a separate marine antenna. I'd like to route the antenna wire through the tower and mount it up on top of the tower. Looks like they mount onto an antenna mount but the antenna mounts I'm finding are made to mount to a flat surface. Anyone know of a good way to do this? Either a mount made for a wakeboard tower or some sort of extension off the pylon on top of the tower (similar to how the tower light is mounted)?
