My car was built on April 1st 2004 (No Joke) and while I ordered option #693 (Sirius Pre-Wiring), it was removed by BMW AG and I wasn't told about the removal until the car was built. BMW apologized and said that dealers were sent a notice that all option #693 were removed on March 19 because of technical issue. My dealer has since been told by BMW NA that they are working on a retrofit (wiring/antenna) for US E60s with NAV. The kit should be available in very late 2004.

Cool, I hope they keep their word on it. I also planned on having not only the prep, but also the full radio install and they (and my dealer) told me it was not possible for now.

I just hope it doesn't mean dismantling the whole car in order to put it in place, and charging disproportionally to do it....

As soon as any more official news makes it out, it would be good to hear about it...
