I'd like to install my xm radio from other car into the M and need to figure out which lines in rear window are the FM antenna. (has defroster.)
Does anyone have, or know where to get a diagram without having to buy a service manual?

The antenna amp is in the "C" pillar, left side. Diversity antennas do not lend themselves to sharing without a possibility of causing interference in other frequencies or bands, does the manufacturer have their own antenna or do they compel you to tag on to what is in the car? If so try that first, or split the signal from the output from the cars' antenna amplifier and good luck. ♥
