I just have a base sport model. I already have a sirius added but I want to add the factory since the wife wants the cup holder back. Are the wires in the rear to hook up? Also will my control panel work to control the radio.

New2Import,

All of the M's come pre-wired for Sat radio. The control panel is also set up for either XM or Sirius stations.

I had infiniti install mine so I can't tell you exactly where the wires are located, but they are there in the trunk area.

Don't you have to install the antenna?

I'd like to know if the pre-wiring is true...

It's easy to check. Remove the top trunk finisher cover. The tuner goes in the upper right, just below the rear parcel shelf. You will see the connector there.

To install the tuner is easy. Just plug it in. And secure it.

If the roof antenna is not installed (does it have the shark fin on the roof? - I doubt it), it will take some time and work to install the factory set-up. Better to just use a small after market antenna which can go on top of the rear parcel shelf and be almost invisable. There are also other options that are easier and cheaper than installing the factory antenna.
