My Ride: 06 750Li, & 03 E500 & 06 550i
Anyone installed the Satellite radio for the 06, 07 or 08 750Li, either OE or Aftermarket? Just wondering which route is best to go without draining the bank?

Actually I dont have SAT on my menu, but I do think its wire so I guess I need to check for sure. We have XM in one car and Sirius in another and neither in the 7, but XM we think has the better stations. Mainly its just that we can always find something without the commercials so a lot of surfing

your car comes pre wired for sat radio so it should be fairly easy to activate it. do you have SAT option in your idrive menu.

Marquies, did your dash already shot SAT as an option or did you did that show after you activated?
Mine is pre-wired, but according to the dealer, If I dont have it, I need the module which is $495.
