Sat modules are a separate electronic module in most e90's
(all the US ones I know about) you will not have one if it didn't come with it from the factory. Cars up until 09 had pre wiring for optons. In the case of a Sat module that meant antenna's and power a power cable and a most bus cable running to the area where the sat module is normally mounted. If you have a 2010 or later car they stopped putting in the pre wiring for those. http://www.e90post.com/goodiesforyou...iriusRadio.pdf https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1915 Last edited by ctuna; 05-19-2019 at 01:36 AM.. |

So buy this and code it in. You will also need a bracket and a few nuts.

Once you install the module and code it all you have to do
is call up Sirius and get a subscription I believe. Code the module to your car change the vin in the module to your car using tool32 then call them up and pay for the subscription. The bimmertech solution does include a 1 year subscription don't know what that costs. |

Coding for sat is easy. Just add $655 to the vo and delete $694. Then factory code the head unit and the sat box.

Don't. In my opinion their programming isn't worth the money. Streaming service (pandora, spotify, amazon, etc.) and bluetooth is where it's at. I've been a Sirius XM customer twice and rarely ever used it. I will say that if you beat them to death on price, they will bend pretty quickly.

My 2011 had it built in, just needed coding and a fsc.code, but I coded in enhanced bluetooth and just use streaming from YouTube, Amazon prime music etc. via bluetooth. I do have the SiriusXM streaming app and use that so I can go from one BMW to the other and not pay for an annual fee on both cars, and their streaming service is cheaper. I get all the Info on my CIC as to channel, artist and song.
