Sat radio is not a factory option nor is it order-able here in canada, something about the lame crtc regulations or something. The parts department can't find out about the part #s for the parts either 
So my question is any one here would know the part number for the sat module? I would imagine it's just another black box that plugs into the loop. At worst the car is not pre-wired and needs new harness but somehow how with the SAT button staring me in the face everyday I think the car is pre-wired and just needs the module.

And for the i-pod kit. It works like a charm-nice little holder for the i-pod below the 6 CD changer, charges the i-pod. The steering wheel controls work on the i-pod too.

After some digging in the forum, it seems like we'll need a different wiring harness for the SAT receiver, the actual SAT module, and it seems like the headliner needs to drop to install the harness. I know the antenna will be located under the plastic section at the rear of the roof. While I was trying to stick the magnetic antenna from my portable unit I found out the roof is in 2 pieces with the last foot or so is plastic.
Looks like I might have to order the parts from a Seattle dealer and either have them or local dealer to install.
The MB i-pod solution works pretty good, I had it on my CLS and I am thinking of putting one on the ML63 also.
