Hey guys, I want to get MP3 support on my motor, i currently have a 6cd changer on my 2005 E60, but does not take MP3 cds at all.. what is it i actualy need? Is it just software... as i called the company at the below link and they said for me to call bmw direct and ask if my car can support the upgrade and if i get the pasts they would fit it. but i didnt think there were any parts just for an MP3 support

Also, Nero or equivalent is the best for producing MP3 CDs. Otherwise you don't get the proper displays and ID tags, etc. All this info is available from searches.
