Hey guys, looking for some help with the best way to connect my ipod/iphone to my 07 550i with navigation but without the stock ipod connection. What is the best kit for me?
I read something about DICE, also about installing OEM interface, but cannot figure out which one would be best for me.
Basically I just want ot play my iphone songs in the car and charging it would be a plus.
thanks for all the tips in advance!

Can't give you advice on which is better... but I just got a 2006 that came with the OEM ipod integration. Since it uses a slightly different pin connector, it would not work with the later ipod/iphone models. It did not work with my iPhone 3gs. So i bought a scosche adapter that basically sits between the iphone and the connector. Works like a charm!

Hello,
Do you have the part number on that? I checked with two dealerships, and they all suggest differently ... Want to know the most economical and functional way to integrate with my iPod.. same car, 2006, 530I, MP3 player, CD Changer, no Nav..
Thanks
