Remove the XM Radio Channels?

Hello All!
My first post here.

I've searched around here as well as elsewhere on the web for this but didn't really find an answer (if there is one, I didn't see one mentioned for G's).

I'm wondering if it's possible to remove the XM Radio Channel options, as options when "tabbing" through the different Sources.
I literally never use my XM Radio options (XM1, XM2, or XM3) and have absolutely zero interest in them. I'd much rather either listen to my own music, or to the sports radio.

Ideally then when using the "Source" button to switch between.. sources.. I'd just have the FM1, FM2, and AM.
You know, the ones I'd actually use.
No XM1, XM2, or XM3 randomly in-between.

Is there any way to remove those as options, so that I don't need to tab through these pointless channels every single time I want to go from, say, my FM1 to AM (for me that's going from my local sports radio @ FM1, to the national sports radio/ESPN Radio @ AM).
It just seems silly to even have them there - pointless, really.


Thanks!

I agree completely. I am also interested to find out if this is possible.

I came here to ask this exact question! I ****ing hate those options. I'm wondering if there is a XM module that the dealer installs that can be uninstalled...

(as I understand it, if you factory reset the nav, you'll lose a lot of features that are manually installed by the OEM or dealer. maybe this xm is one of those?)

No, there's no way to "remove" then completely if you have the stock head unit. Sorry.
