that's what I just did yesterday Panna...it's easier than I thought. Just plug into the connector and hit MODE till AUX appears. Now only waiting for the bluetooth receiver to arrive.
I totally forgot i have a cigarette 12v plug tucked right up passenger footwell below the glove comp. I think im just going to run usb and leave it charged/plugged to that plug. Does anyone see any downfall to this method?
also, this job (INSTALLING THE AUX COSTED ME $140 USD..) yes ONLY the AUX from BMW $35....how you may ask....so in morning, car's cold all i did was move it into driveway(3yards) turn car off, left doors all open, engine off/key out. I then go begin the process of removing the unit, I see the connector so then i plugged AUX wire in, did the routing. Then i turn car on(not engine) to hit MODE and awesome AUX appears and continue the process of finding the perfect spot for the AUX input, THEN suddenly i hear the X die/shut/dead battery sound.
tried jump starting nothing worked, called AAA , they said battery was toasted. Possible drained it or something happened during the process. Im thinking HOW no wires touched, I didn't remove any fuses, and none were burnt. The last battery also purchased from AAA was i think 09/10 so 4/5 years ago.
So sorry for the long long write up, can anyone shed some info on what happened? please. If i had done something wrong, it'll help prevent same prob for the next person does this OOOOhhhh so simple install.
