Out Of Control!!
I saw some new C Class cars at a dealership with sat antennas on the roof. The salesman said that is where MB is placing them now. I suppose they are doing the same on the E class. So, deductive reasoning would theorize that the antenna cannot be mounted on the glass. I suppose that is an oversight of some engineer. I bet that in time they make design changes to correct this problem.

That is a supid dealer. SAT radio is going to factory installed only, and the only exception (for a limited time) are 211's with the pano roof. Eventually they too will be converted to factory order only.

I don't quite understand the problem here. I've just taken delivery of my E55 with Pano and it has Sirius (antennae mounted on trunk) and it works fine (however, unlike xm, no buffer when traveling under bridges/tunnels so drop outs occur!). I do like the programming options with Sirius more than xm .

there is no such thing as 526 with pano, tell the salesman to order 626 premium pkg (that includes pano) and 022 (satellite radio).
