    Move satellite tuner from one E91 to another

    I have two identical 2007 E91s. One of them has option S655A "satellite tuner" (but the car doesn't actually have satellite, probably not activated). And the other only has S693A "preparation BMW satellite radio". I also have an E60 that has lifetime satellite radio. I'm selling the E91 with the satellite tuner option.

    My end goal is to get the E91 that I'm keeping to have lifetime satellite.

    Is the satellite module in the E60 a tuner, or is the lifetime subscription some sort of hardware module that is added on? Can I simply take the satellite module out of the E60 and plug it into the preparation satellite E91 and magically have satellite? Or do I need to move the tuner from the other E91 to the one I'm keeping, THEN add the module from the E60? How does this work?

    Hi,

    You might need to ask various BMW dealers in your area and a little way beyond as it's OEM hardware you are asking about.

    Cheers, Dennis!

    I checked the local dealership and they were being weird about it saying that it feels like they would be going around Sirius’s back. Not sure how since it's my hardware.
