Adding Aux Input
1. Can I add the aux imput and keep my already installed iPod Your BMW kit? 2. How much should this cost and where is the best place to get it installed. (I do not want to install myself - no time and no DIY skills.) Thanks for your help. |

I called 2 local Boston BMW dealers to quote an install.
Dealer 1, BMW Gallery: $75 for parts, 1 hour of labor , total cost = $183. Deler 2, Foreign Motors West: $40 parts, 2 hours labor, total cost = $259. Are these prices fair or am I getting hosed by the dealers? |

Feel free to email me directly and I'll send you instructions and you can determine if this job is something you want to tackle or not. It may even shave off .5 hour at dealer #2 if you bring him a copy.

My time is worth more than that i think. 200 bucks and its done, instead of 50 bucks and 3 hours into it and not being done yet.

I did mine last night, 45 mins from start to finish , and I have never had the cd player and mid out before, very very easy.
I fitted the aux input in the small area just below the cig lighter in the ash tray area, looks nice and tidy. I have a Sony HD5 and it has a true Line out so the sound quality is pretty good, much better than using a standard headphone socket.

Do you have to take the CD player out as well? Or just the MID is enough to fit the AUX connector? Do you have a picture of your install of the Aux input jack below the cig lighter area? I just got the Aux kit myself and will install it over the weekend. Thanks. |
