Depends on what head unit you have and what firmware is on that head unit.

Looking at you images, you have an MID unit but I can't see what is above that, under the faux wooden cover - assuming it's a radio/CD Player (BMW Business CD?). If it's the original unit, it's not likely to support an Aux input.

My 2005 has a similar setup but it has the later BMW Professional CD - aka CD54 - and while it should have an Aux. input option, I've never managed to get it going.
