2005 Mercedes-Benz Vehicles in North America Feature Satellite Radio Receivers by Delphi

TROY, Mich., March 15 -- Delphi Corp. announced it is supplying satellite radio receivers for all 2005 model year Mercedes- Benz models sold in North America.

Satellite radio offers listeners more than 100 channels of music and programming coast-to-coast and is one of the most rapidly growing entertainment applications.

In 2002, DaimlerChrysler selected Delphi to supply receiver units for dealer-installed units. The company decided to opt for factory-installed units on many of its vehicles.

Delphi has produced more than 4.5-million OEM and retail satellite radio receivers. In addition to satellite-ready head units, Delphi makes a broad range of audio/video head units that incorporate navigation as well as various playback devices such as DVDs, CDs, MP3s and cassettes.
