Sorry to hear about the last minute hitch....

On a related note, has anyone tried the XM MyFi in their E60? I had XM in my last car and loved it, been thinking about the MyFi in particular as you can set it up to record shows to the hard drive (a la TiVo) then use the FM transmitter to play stored content through the car radio. That's the piece I am most concerend about since my experiences with using an FM transmitter with my iPod were less than successful....
Any experience out there??

gmmandrade,

have you had any further progress on the retrofit of SIRIUS with NAV without the pre-wiring?

Are you getting a black hockey puck antenna stuck on your trunk or will you use the shark fin antenna? Thanks.

Hey, what happened with this? Sounds like a tease?

Looks like a possible alternative solution is available.

Anything ever happen here other than the buyback option (since I want it now, but did not order it)?

I think it's interesting to note that the originator of the thread I linked to above hasn't posted anything more about the subject. You may want to bump that thread or PM the guy and ask him what transpired...
