Therefore, does anyone have a picture of the back of a USA MY 2010 CIC, as I'm interested to know what the antenna connections for the Sirius antenna may look like.

Thanks.

As you can see there is no specific Sirius Antenna connection.

You might want to read this thread to see where we are at.

In summary

Thanks to Technic, we have identified that BMW have changed the Sharkfin antenna in MY2010-11 cars that have sirius fitted at the factory. The sirius radio signal is carried from the HU to the sharkfin down the GPS antenna cable.
