the install is fine however be aware that the radio display wont show the song titles or text from the ipod... you'll need something like dice or some adapter to do so.

Hello DKL,

Thank you, With the AUX Kit can you have both the Mp3 and CD changer working ?
is it a pretty straight forward installation?

Thank you
Jim
This is my first X5,, have it now for about 2 months,,so still learning.

Yes...I have both, the AUX kit and the CD changer. Use the mode button to toggle between all your sources (CD changer, CD player, AUX, Radio). Installation is pretty straight forward. Take a look at items 20, 21, and 22 of the Stereo section in the home page for instructions of the AUX install.

Hello DKL,

Thank you
Is the Aux Kit a BMW Kit or from a some one Else?

Thank you
Jim
