Satalite radio?
Hi guys. i have a 2008 E350 4-matic. It has the button on the radio for sat radio, but it does not work. What parts do I need to get this baby going? I know there has to be a way to get it OEM. Thanks!

If vehicle is prewired, check behind right trunk panel, you will need receiver 2118706790. Roof antenna is telephone/GPS/satellite if not prewired you may have to go with aftermarket.

Me Too
I recently bought a really nice 2005 W-211 CDI and it also does not have the module.
A friend checked with a MBZ dealer and got the correct part number, but was told
that dealers no longer stock or sell the module that my vehicle must have.
So I may have to buy one off EBay or start looking in the bone yards? What should I do?
I hear that a terk aftermarket antenna is the best. What does everyone think?
Thank you for your thoughts.

I do however subscribe to XM via a portable receiver and XM appears to sound better than Sirius. I was looking for a better solution by trying the in car radio but I guess I will keep my portable solution.

SiriusXM is supposed to be making technical changes* to the Sirius signal in several years (* termination). I've still not been able find a clear and trustworthy answer to the implications to the Sirius receivers in our cars. There's perhaps risk of them becoming obsolete sooner than you might think. But I don't really know... ...maybe it's an opportunity to get a free upgrade from junk yard salvage to brand new. ???
