There is no need to seek a professional to install your Sirius Satellite Radio, which is a radio capable of receiving signals from Sirius. As long as your car is satellite radio ready, the task is simple and doesn't require advance knowledge in car audio electronics --- just look for a Sirius logo, which will typically be located on the front of your factory-installed radio. You can also check with the car's owner's manual for the logo sticker's specific location. Many modern vehicles are satellite radio ready.
