Anyway, I did call up my dealer and she assured me that the X3 was optioned correctly - she checked it in her system and sent me the Vehicle Inquiry Report that showed the options. So, I'm breathing a little better.

On the Sirius front, though - I think Derek you hit it on the nose - it's covered by the warranty anyway so I should just go ahead and try to do it on my own. Now, it's finding a good place to get the unit itself. Is Circle BMW the only place online that sells it?

JSY,

Thanks for posting the TSB - it will be a big help. Now I need to get directions for removing and reinstalling the sharkfin!

Pre-wire for Sat was an option in 06. Is it standard now?

Not sure, but you can check in the cargo area for the connectors and tell within a few minutes. The connectors are on the right of this pic:

I'm quite certain that all 2007 x3's come pre-wired for satellite now. It's not available as an option anymore and I read it somewhere, too... I think it was in their brochure. Kinda like how the aux input for the radio is now standard as well.

Yes, all 07 are prewired.

The dealer got the antenna glitch corrected and Sirius works great now....
