What do i need to get done if i want Satelite radio in my 06 s It has the upgraded speakers but no cd changer. can find the Aux port on the fron of the radio. Do i need a complete new radio/Cd player build in ?

 

You don't need a new radio. Get a Blitzsafe adapter, an XM direct box & play it through your current radio.

If you already have a sat radio that needs to plug into a jack, you can add the jack.

This is for XM. For Sirius there is a box you can buy from MINI. Your current radio is satellite ready.

 

Satellite Radio Package
2003-2006 Mini Cooper/Cooper S
2005-2008 Mini Cooper/Cooper S Cabrio

 

I've been using the XM Direct Blitzsafe combo for 4 years & love it.

 

Thanks for the Input. But how would i control the XM radio my Radio has only 2 functions Cd and radio. Perhaps i stupid but is i buy this thing and plug it up it is controlled how? Will there apear a third option on the MOD button ?

 

When I power up my radio is says Sirius. As you've said there is AM-FM CD & Aux plus the Sirius.

Here is a link to a whole lot of info about the Blitzsafe XM Direct install. Unfortunately the pictures are now gone.

That is what i asked i don't see the aux or the sirius option i believe that the radio unit can not do anyithig else then FM?AM and CD

 

If you buy the Blitsafe XM direct & hook it up it will work. Read the thread I linked it will help you understand.

 

Same here....it sounds great, is a clean factory style install, no second display or controler. The only minus is the limited display on the MINI head.

 

Once you plug it in, it will recognize it.

 

I have the factory Sirius unit (DIY installed though, very easy!). It becomes another "mode" you scroll through once it is installed. AM/FM/CD/SIRIUS is the order, I believe. It wouldn't make much sense for it to show up before it was installed...
