Just no.
"Sat Radio Preparation" is the Sirius antenna pre-installed and pre-wired in the roof sharkfin.
Since MY2010 the Sirius tuner has been built-in in either the iDrive or the Professional Radio HU; there is no more a separate tuner available from factory or for dealer-retrofit.
If ordered from factory then the Sirius tuner is activated and with a 1-year subscription already set. If not ordered from factory then the activation can be done by the dealer by paying for the activation codes (FSC) and coding. Price of the FSC is about the same as ordering the option from factory, but with the addition of dealer labor charges -the 1-year subscription will be included for the total price.
