Adapting a 2005 Element EX radio with XM to a 2004 Element EX

The head unit is the same size. What wiring components and antenna changes are needed to install the 2005 model which has XM radio and can someone direct me to where i can download wiring diagrams for both years radios (EX models)? Much appreciated!

Definitely gonna need the tuner (don't think it's built into the head unit) and the appropriate cable (between tuner and head), and antenna...
