Now after three days 128 miles on new black, saddle Dakota coupe with no other options, 6 sp. I am amazed at how solid, quick and responsive this car is. Somehow the test drive in the automatic was not as exhilerating. This is an amazingly well enginered car. As you know the sun roof is standard on coupes. This car has twin turbo engine, not new single turbo. It was built in October,2010. The roof has the fish tail antenna which I hoped would not be there if I did not order satelite radio nor phone options. Can I have it removed or does it contain radio antenna? Such fun... Dan
Radio antenna is probably upper two wires in your rear defroster Realoem indicates that this is used for satellite radio, navigation, mobile phone prep (although if you have Bluetooth, the antenna is probably connected to that functionality for the mobile phone function also). If you have any of these options, that's what its used for. There might be other functions that realoem hasn't disclosed, but this is what it reveals so far. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=KG73&mospid=52126&btnr=65_1540&hg=65&fg=30&hl=11 No. Description Supplement Qty From Up To Part Number Price Notes i Mounting roof antenna with glass adhesive! 01 Empty housing for roof antenna, primed 1 65206955555 $54.55 01 Empty housing for roof antenna, painted CODE-UNI/MET. 1 65200397539 $152.35 For vehicles with Satellite tuner and Preparation BMW satellite radio = No and Preparation f mobile phone cpl.

I wouldn't mess with it unless you know exactly what you're doing... ...as well as the consequences of your actions. Otherwise, it could cause a potentially expensive trip to the dealer to fix. With the electronics-laden cars BMW is selling these days, you have no idea what will happen.
Thank you You guys are great. I will not mess with it and just enjoy the car. Afterall the dreiver is not perfect either. Dan
