They are available but are rare as hen teeth. LOL

Here's a picture as to how they look. They sometime come up on eBay.

I'm sorry sure but poor college student and full time IT guy keeps his X5 on a budget here...
Oil change done on my own..using the titanium castrol oil when its on sale and oe filter.
Gas- well cant save there...just use 93 from bj's wholesale...if you put 91 you get worse mpg.

I think the Grom units are more budget friendly.

GROM USB, Android Smartphone, iPod, AUX, Bluetooth Hands Free Integration to a factory car stereo

Only works if your X came with the cheap non nav radio.

From their website:

Compatibility Notes
Fully compatible with the lightning to 30-pin adapter
Not compatible with DSP radios. "DSP" will be indicated on a button on the front of the factory radio
Not compatible with vehicles equipped with iDrive
Not compatible with navigation radios
