Installing a Sirius adapter on a '03 X3 with NAV (non prewired)

[baudolino]

Hello everyone,

I was looking around for some info about retrofitting a sirius receiver in an X3 with NAV system, but without any pre-wiring (just checked this with the dealer). I had a couple of questions and was wondering whether someone else managed to successfully install the adapter.

1. Am I correct in assuming the proper solution is the package sold on http://www.europeanautosource.com/pr...roducts_id=281

2. If yes, how hard it is as a DYI project?

3. How integrated is the solution? Will I have control over the sat radio from my dashboard/wheel and will I see the station/song info on the nav screen?

4. Anyone else in my situation, who managed to solve this, and care to share their experience?

5. Could I do XM rather than Sirius? (I have XM on the other car and would save a bit on the bundle subscription...not that it would matter with the looming merger).

Many thanks in advance for your input!
