I have a 2001 Z3 3.0 and plan to install a sirius sat unit in the trunk. It requires running a small control unit into the cockpit. I cannot find a good route from the trunk to the center console... any ideas? Pictures or links would be a great help.

Remove the footwell panel in the passenger sure and you'll see they space I'm talking about. There's another good space next to it to coil up all the extra cord used to connect the head unit and the satellite receiver.
If you put the satellite antenna inside the car between the hoops, then there's NO NEED to wire up anything outside the passenger area. This tip can save you hours and hours of work.
I set up the entire sirius system this way in my Z3 in less than 2 hours.
