Aux in cable, Europe only?

[Turbo_Bimmer]

I read the excellent article about installing the AUX cable on the navigation unit.
The article lists a cable # 65 12 0 153 503 .
When I look in Realoem.com, that number is available only in the european catalog, it is not listed for US cars.
The author of the article is in Europe.

But, in the US catalog, they list 61122153331 which looks like a cable that would connect from the 65 12 0 153 503 jack to a Ipod.

Does US and Eur cars have different output connectors on the back of the navigation unit, or I can use the 65 12 0 153 503 cable in a US/Canadian car?
