Thanks forgot to put myself on the list.

Guys, I will have to give this Sunday's meet a miss. I've got work this weekend - vessel expected to be in port.

Hope to see you guys at the next meet.

Once again, my apologies.

Well, We're gonna miss you. Be there in spirit and we'll have a coffee on you. Swing by if you can slip out. Anyway, see the rest of you there at 3!

Besides the wiring, is there a need to enable it via software? You did it at PML? Actually I am waiting for the iPod adapter. Its fun to see the titles on iDrive although I am never a fan of MP# audio quality.

I got it done at Kg. Arang. The only guy who has an idea of the Aux input install is Anwar, a Senior CSA. I had the same problems trying to find out from PML Alexandra. Nobody had a clue. It's a quick job and the unit sits hidden away in the glove compartment. Eugene Loke from our forum had a very important role in making sure that they got it right. Mines the 2nd car they have worked on after Eugene's. Call Anwar at 6319 0881 (DID) and just tell him that you want the Aux input installed (mention either Eugene Loke or Sheena). Cost is S$300+ including labour. After installation, you have an addition option under your entertainment settings labeled 'Aux - Audio'.

I have my audio ripped in AIFF format (not compressed), so no loss in quality there as I'm a little fussy about sound myself. Maybe those who are interested can see the installation on the 13th when we meet.

Good luck guys!

HI Dindae,

Got a quick question, does the Aux retrofit have a power cable out ? If not, Maybe installing an cig lighter cable adaptor to charge my MP3 playerwould be a good idea ?

ALso to Tategoi, is the ipod adaptor a apple product or you are talking about BMW option ? Please enlighten Very interested and very board with CD's already. PML failed to install the MP3 CD option on my E60.

Regards.

And so we met at West Coast Park outside McDonald's much to many other motorist gawking at us. It was sad that we had to miss edLee, stranger and maybe totoseow although he did not idicate he would be coming.

All of us wanted to hear edlee's debacle with PML and he is sorely missed; the consolation is that we had NEWcomers like dindae520i and BMW530 all the way from Wales, UK.

dindae520i showed us his AUX input together with a Belkin cigarette adaptor to power up his Ipod - considering the wires going over the centre console, it ain't that neat an option - but no fish prawn also can leh. dindae520i's ride is cared for by Carman, and it sure impresses.

tategoi's sound system is awesome!!! It's like having the Esplanade in your car! And at a cool $15K, it sure put Logic7 and the like to shame. The processor in the trunk and the woofers produces REAL good sounds that makes most of us salivate!!!

Some pics for you fellas to keep:
