Suggestions? X5 Bluetooth / iPod / Garmin Nav

[bl01X5]

I'm soliciting suggestions from the experts. My wife's 2001 X5 (BMW phone, no Nav, no DSP), is in need of some upgrade(s). I'm hoping to reduce some of the clutter that I've added. She has an iPod, and the FM transmitter doesn't work well, and the casette adapter isn't great. The BMW phone is cool for what it does, but it's like travelling back in time. And I love the Garmin StreetPilot 2730 (with XM Radio and NavTraffic), but it has to be switched out with the other casette adapter, as the FM transmitter isn't strong enough there either.

So I've looked at the IceLink Plus for her iPod, and I've looked at the EIS/Bavarian Soundwerks kits for BlueTooth. One local retailer didn't know about the EIS kit and suggested the Parrot BlueTooth, but that doesn't seem very OEM-ish. Any suggested combos from the experts to solve all 3 clutter issues? I doubt there's much of an option for the Garmin, but it has a line out, and I'd be happy with an input jack to replace the casette adapter.

Thanks in advance!

My 2 cents:

for the iPod, the IceLink is hands down the way to go. Check with Tom G. at http://europeanautosource.com/

for the Bluetooth, I would go with the OEM solution for the best integration. Good sources are EIS or Martin Bishop at http://bimmernav.com/

Sorry, I can't offer any help for the Garmin.
