With the SAT button, you are sat. capable, but not necessarily sat ready yet. Some cars are not prewired with the sat cable and it is VIN dependent.

For 2003, the VIN rages are as follows, (these go by the last 6 digits of your VIN):
Sedan VIN: 321894 & higher
Coupe VIN: 210827 & higher
All 2004 and later cars are pre-wired from the factory.

It's pretty easy to install a factory sat tuner if the cable is prewired. It terminates in the trunk and is easy to get to. It's a little more expense and work if you have to buy the cable for $57 and remove the radio to connect it to the back of the radio.

Look here for the parts and installation instructions. http://www.g35parts.com/9083/osc/pro...roducts_id=284
