Welcome!

I am sure a few people will come on and help you out!!! In regards to ipod connection, you can either install Denison 500 which is a device to allow you to control ipod through your idrive, or if you have aux input in your car then you can splice a wire into the aux and run the ipod that way (this is what i do).

Dont think many ppl, if any really change the headunit... we want to keep it looking "standard".

Welcome!!!

You can call up and buy from their office in TKW directly, rather than paying online and waste of postage.
The tail lights are Taiwan stuff so no match of the OEM LCI lights, but if you are in tight budget, that will be cool.

Welcome aboard.
I never saw this after market Taiwan tail light in the street. Looked ugly. Owner either mod to LCI or keep as original. My opinion only.
