I'm tired
Can you take a picture of it? I asked them for an aux mic input a while back when I gave them my feedback. They might have implemented that. They told me that the BT is better on the new units. Can you try that to connect an external mic if you have one or use the iPod to output on it and make a phone call using the BT and see if the other end hears the iPod playing.

@fmugur - Hi Flo! here's the photo I owe you... Oh by the way, I emailed another reseller in HK and asked about this 3.5 female connector at the back beside the ipod connector and the guy answered "it is for the MIC"



What's the letter "T" on the tape label attached to the wire???

another reseller said..."HI, THANKS FOR YOUR INTERESTING,,,
THIS CONNECTOR IS FOR THE TV ANTENNA , WHICH IS NOT INCLUDED WITH IT. YOU NEED TO BUY IT FROM SOMEONE ELSE BECAUSE I DON'T OFFER IT.
AND FOR THIS TIME I'M OUT OF STOCK FOR THREE WEEKS


I'm extremely confused now!!!

In the previous picture you posted below, what is this antenna for? Maybe this mates with the mysterious jack beside the white ipod connector???

Hi there, that cable you have circled next to the iPod connection is the Antenna port for the Inbuilt Tuner, not an External Mic Port

Which such as my internal mic sucks ass inside my E39 Hooligan unit. I got mine 2 days ago so it should have all of the updated stuff on it and still no Mic.

Anybody know how to use the 'Music' 'Photo and 'Video' functions on this unit, whenever i put in my 32GB SD it takes me to the SD menu however i would like to use the Audio Menu to access the files on it, however it does not show up when i try to browse for it

Ohh also im a member of Bimmerforums so you can see my install pics in the E39 Section etc, however im having an issue with the iPod cable sound, its all hissy and makes random noises when nothings playing/ song changes, it does not happen on any other function, only iPod. I have tried 2 ipods... touch and iPhone same issue on both, i have a feeling i could have a dudd cable. Anybody know where i can get a replacement iPod cable / know what the correct name of the cable is? is it a DIN9 iPod cable or?

I wan't somebody to start making themes etc for this, i can't wait to see an iDrive style menu theme
