Iphone in 2001 X5

[jship]

Dear X5 Colleagues,

My X5 is 2001 with Navigation w/factory installed BMW phone (motorola); I just purchased IPhone 4s is there any way to intergrate 4s into my 2001 system to used handfree as the system was designed to do?

I am the original owner and live in Arlington, VA and I have just topped 80,000 miles in my 2001 X5. I used the metro and walk a lot and have taken road trips to Mich, Okla, New York and NC and believe my X5 still has many years left. Please advise and thanks in advance. JShip

Here is the write-up that I did for retrofitting Bluetooth into my 2001 X5 with nav - http://www.xoutpost.com/articles/all...01-bmw-x5.html

I did this in my E38, and another simple thing you can do is go in eBay etc. and buy the updated microphone. It just snaps in, very simple. I did it because many friends reported the person on the other end of the line said it was a noticeable difference from the mic installed a decade ago. I think one mic is Green and one is Black, if I can find the PN# I will edit the post.

Another easy solution is a DICE MediaBridge. $300-400 and your iPhone is fully functional via BlueTooth.
