Question add sirius to OEM deck?

I picked up an MR and I didn't get the sirius package. I am trying to get in in the car and I am exploring options. I know you can buy an add on for the OEM radio and install that. Any one done this?Price,easy intall? Are there any other options that will work with the OEM deck? I don't want to pull out the stock deck and replace because then I will loose the bluetooth and wheel controls, right?
Thanks for the help-

My post says, add it to the OEM deck. I have done it with an aftermarket deck. Some have told me sirius is in the car already. I need to take a ride to the dealer, I guess

Ya... it's standard, there is no option or upgrade unless the dealer yanked it.

It's a box/brain behind the glovebox if I remember right.

Thanks-
I just went to look. No "siruis" labeled box in that area behind there. I did see one long narrow black box, but it said mitsu.. on it so I am assuming its not there. I did see one place where it looks like you can throw a radio connector too, but it was on the right side of the box.

I thought it was standard. So you just had to activate it. Hmmm

Thats what Mitsu told me. But even when siruius isn't activated you get the "programming" channel 184 the will work. When I scroll through the am/fm/sat button there is not siruis. One of the techs told me i need to buy the kit.
I think I am just going aftermarket on the whole thing!
