My Ride: On order: 2007 550i, silver gray, black leather, anth. maple trim, active cruise, heated steering wheel, sport, night vision, vent seats, heat rears, active steering, rear air bags, folding seats, comfort access, navigation , HUD, black head liner, steptronic, premium sound, sirius and HD radio.
According to the new information on the BMW website...the cradles are supposed to charge the phone. I installed the part myself and it is using the shark-fin antenna but no charge. Is there something the dealer has to do to make this thing charge the phone?

what does a multimeter say when you measured the voltage before plugging the wire into the cradle with the car on?

I assume you connected the wires for both the antenna and power to the plugs below the rear seat A/C vents?
