There is no user accessible slot in G12 cars spec'd for the USA since they all come standard with option SA6NW (wireless charging). The SA6NW option adds roof mounted TCB2 (Telematic Communications Box) in the "fin" on top of the car -- an advancement first introduced in the F30 and now available in the new 7 Series. With this system, two integrated telematic antennas (TEL1 and TEL2) ensure strong LTE data reception. There's also an integrated backup emergency GSM antenna which now serves as a "hub" for the Wi-Fi hotspot in the car. The AT&T SIM card is located in this roof-mounted box and, therefore, is not user-swappable.

Extension of the trial period (and purchase of an AT&T plan) is all done via whatever device you've paired to the car.
