You would be better off with Sirius. There is no pandora module that I've heard of. Most smart phones have pandora u just have to download the app. I have it on my work flip phone from Verizon.

You will need a smartphone or tablet device with a data plan. You can find an older used Ipod touch for probably around $100 but you will still need a data plan to stream music.
There are some car stereo and navigation systems that are Pandora capable.

Here's a link to the Pandora website with more Details : Pandora | How to Listen to Pandora in the Car

If you plan on listening for long periods of time, you better find an unlimited plan. Pandora uses a ton of data.

I would have thought pandora would have had a cheap unit like a sirus. Well that sucks!

Thanks for your help guys.

Sirius is satellite based radio...Pandora is Internet based radio. Having a Pandora only unit would kind of be like having a device where you could only connect to the JK-Forum instead of having the ability to connect to the millions of other websites or having a radio which would only tune to 1 radio station.
