OK, Picked up the new 2006 X5 3.0 on Friday, and had the dealer install the

Eject Box (p/n 84-21-6-946-055 / 84-21-6-946-063)
v710 Snapin Adapter (p/n 84-21-0-393-570)
plus the extra antenna ...

The dealer picked the parts, not me ... I told him I wanted to put my E815 in the center console, use the car's antenna, and charge the phone while talking through the bluetooth system.

I finally got around to trying it out today, and the phone pairs perfectly, address book transfers, etc.

But, like several other posts in this forum, the phone is not charging (I think it's using the antenna ... but I haven't verified that 100% yet).

I searched the forum, and saw a bunch of 2005 installs ... but did not see a final entry from someone who has a v710 or E815 working and charging through an eject box and snapin adapter ... although there is lots of circumstantial evidence that some folks have it working as designed.

Can someone who has it working please post their part numbers? I want to call the dealer with all the info needed for him to either diagnose or repair the problem. Particularly if he has the wrong eject box installed (which I suspect) ...

Other than that, I am having a blast driving the car!

Thanks for the help from the forum members, I visit almost every day, and you guys know 1000x more than anyone I've met at the dealer!
