Sirius questions

So I have searched and see mixed results.
I have 2009 e90 that is satellite prepped with idrive, navi, etc. what do I need to do get Sirius in my car? Is it a tuner in the trunk? Or does my car need to be just coded and activated? Please help, and thanks for your insight.

Whats your opinion on the sirius onyx kit? The only thing i dont like is putting the antenna on the roof. I was thinking if i can double side tape it to the rear window. I dont know how itll sound, quality wise.

Can you not tap the OEM antenna? COAX to fakra is a very simple adapter sold on eBay.
