Yes they tease you with it not to mention goes to prove that Travel Link etc can be enabled in post factory navigation setups that are done properly. 
I love the travel link when I'm on the road... However even though the trial is enabled if you don't renew after the 6 month trial it likely will quit since Sirius sends a code from their server directly to your car to enable the regular subscription telling the APIM you're current.

Just to clear things up the Sirius satellite receiver is in the ACM (audio control module aka cd player which houses the AM/FM receiver as well).  The APIM only is a display for the Sirius Radio.

Great Vids thanks!

Those should clear up some of the misconceptions about gen 4.2 AWD. (max power transfer, etc)

Good info Z.... Also glad you're finally getting that windshield... And that the supply chain appears to have caught up with demand.

I have an appt tomorrow to finally have my windshield installed after almost waiting two months for an oem glass,so figured i'll give Safelite a call to confirm my appt and to verify that they have the glass before making the trip to a different state,spoke with the manager of safelite and tells me the same story since day one(NO ETA )UNREAL. BTW cant mention the rest that was said after that.  Z    >:( >:(
