I just got the 4.8 and drove it home last night. I am trying to figure out the best way to integrate my Ipod. I have a CD changer, sirius and BMW assist.

What are my choices?

Thanks in advance for your help. I have tried to educate myself through this forum, but I do not have a really clear picture.

The CD Changer is replaced for the iPod interface. Here's the kit you need:

DICE iPod Integration Kit for BMW
http://www.europeanautosource.com/pr...roducts_id=268

The DICE will allow for control of your iPod via the steering wheel or radio controls, text display and charging of your iPod through a single dock connector.

Everything needed for a complete install is included with the kit. Let me know if you have any further questions!

DICE, DICE, baby!!!!:thumbup:

Thanks Tom...
 

Is there any way to keep the factory CD changer and use an Ipod? Perhaps the Aux input only?

Tom

Yes, that is exactly what I have. I am guessing that your car is new enough that it has the Aux-ready radio and wiring. If that is the case, then a $35 Aux input adapter will give you what you need.

The intention of the iPod is to replace the CD Changer, once it's integrated - the CD Changer is old news. The DICE allows your entire music library (or anyone else's) to travel along with you and allowing steering wheel/radio control and full text display on the radio or NAV screen.

If you're unsure, try the AUX first - I'm positive you'll upgrade to the DICE later. ;)

you should give me the car and it will solve all your problems

You already have one...
