Hi Everyone
Getting ready for summer vacation with 2 kids the luggage room doesn't really hold everything. (babybed, stroller etc).
A roofbox is of course the answer to that, but I'm worried if this will block the tracking of satellites from the sharkfin antenna. I have the professional navigation system in my E61. Any experience with this??
Thanks
Best Regards

I dont think you should have an issue. BMW themselves sell roof boxes and I would hope they would have thought about this basic requirement.
