BMW offers SIRIUS satellite radio on the E83 as a dealer installed option, however, dealers have been known to charge upwards of $800 to install this option. X3 owners can order the BMW SIRIUS tuner and install it themselves (there are a lot of DIY install guides the in the E83 forum). The tuner with wiring kit is $550 from places like Circle BMW (http://www.circlebmw.com/parts/sirius/sirius.htm). The tuner installs in a discrete location and owners control everything through the standard radio interface. If you want a fully integrated SIRIUS, this is the only solution. If you don't want to install it yourself, you can get the dealer to roll their price into your monthly payment. | BMW offers SIRIUS satellite radio on the E83 as a dealer installed option, however, dealers have been known to charge upwards of $800 to install this option.
