that would be the factory option which you cannot have in the middle east so far so the one i installed is the only way

I got the ipod as an option on my X5 4.8 and it works great with the idrive. It is located in the armrest console with the USB slot and a head phone jack which is connected to the ipod with the hardware provided with the option that came with the car. It sounds great especially with premium sound package.

I'm taking delivery of '08 3.0si a week from Tuesday at the Performance Center. When ordering I asked my dealer about the USB and iPod connection and what he would recommend. Her is his e-mail reply.

the difference on the I pod is that the USB cable allows you to adjust your play list’s and everything from the steering wheel or I drive as well as charges your I Pod! With just the Auxiliary you have to do everything by actually using the I pod and it does not charge your Ipod. Hope this helps you I will plug in your order on Monday and Email it to you J
