You would require a satellite radio receiver, as well as a subscription.
I forget if there is a sat button on the oem head unit or not...

Looks like an aftermarket alarm and/or remote starter antenna.

Think Soldier has it right, it look like the Sirius radio antenna my daughter had in her old 3. I'll have to dig it out of the box in the garage to really see.
