2007 e92 w/nav Can I get Sirius to work on it?

BostonMike · 11-07-2011, 03:04 PM

I bought the car used. It does not have the Sirius option installed. Is there a way for me to get it to work? I think I read somewhere (maybe here but I cant find it) that there is some kind of module that you hook up to the back of the radio. Has anyone here ever done it? I went to the dealer and they said they could do it but it would cost around $600.
I dont want to have an external radio. I wanted it to work with the factory radio.

Yup email getbmwparts.com and get the part numbers required for the kit, install yourself (so easy) and then have the dealership activate/activate yourself with coding interface.

Cool. Will the dealership charge me for that? What's a coding interface? Is it that obdII connector?

Wowzer! It's still going to cost me over $500.00. I wonder if I should suck it up and just get an external radio? It might look ugly but it will cost much less.
