Dealer Says BMW iPod = NO for my Vehicle

[snkpkp]

hi

I know everyone will start yelling at me for not using the search button, but I couldnt find a clean scenario, my vehicle is

2003/11 E53 4.4i Facelift

NAV = NO
DSP= NO
HIFI=YES
CD CHANGER = YES
TV FUNCTION = YES
AUX INPUT = NO

I know I will have to delete the CD CHANGER but are they right? ? I cant have the BMW iPod?

Why would you want the BMW iPod interface? It is vastly inferior to other solutions out there, such as the DICE Silverline kit.

I have a Dension ICE Link Plus. will that work?

I just wanted to keep everything stock in terms of electronics etc.... the Ice Link Plus in the DIY only shows with the DSP, for the non DSP I just have to connect the adapter to the CD Changer right?

I think I have the wrong ICE LINK PLUS, my CD CHANGER has two connecting cable and the ICe link cable which is long and supposed to plug in to the back of the cd change cables has a 6 pin head and there are these two large adapters which looks like that will plug in the back of the head unit and there is another 6 pin connecter in that set which looks like that will connect with the ice link adapter cable ..... anyways I just want to order the BMW integration, is that possible on my spec vehicle?

ok I think i need the trunk interface cable , i have the head unit interface cable, and rather not use that...too complicated.
