Hi All,
I see this on ebay,
Siruis Radio Module
Is it possible to retrofit this on a car that doesn't have sirius radio?

It should be easy -- as long as the car has the "Sirius prep" which contains the proper wiring, etc. for the radio. Without the prep package, I'd say you're SOL.
(You can call BMWNA and give them your VIN to see if you have the prep...)

I think I am SOL. my car is a 2004 530i, 09/2003 production year.
I dont think I have that prepped option.
but here is my Vin, if anyone can verify,
My last 7 digits, B061158

Sirius can be retrofitted.
Just went thru and had the dealer install it. The main issue was the 2004 cars weren't all prewired. My wasn't. May build in 04.
It is installed and works wonderfully thanks to Sonnen BMW.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.
