what do I need to get cd changer and xm in 2006 X5?

Hi, we just purchased our 2006 X5 the day after thanksgiving. The wife wants me to install XM for her Christmas present. From what I have seen on here, it's fairly easy. What parts do I need to order? I would like to install the antenna in the rear spoiler like I have seen some people on here do. Anybody done this with an 06?

Also, can I install a cd changer at the same time I am installing the XM? What do I need to do to order that? do they make these that read mp3 cd's as well?

This is the 3.0 x5, with no navi, just the single cd player in the dash. As far as I can tell, it doesn't have DSP either. Wouldn't there be a button marked DSP on the radio if it was there?


Thanks in advance.
Charles

There is another set of connectors on the XM device to retain your CD Changer, you can use both.
