I have an 04 with the phone cradle in the center console also. If you tear the lining out of the left side of the trunk you can see the TCU. Just look for the little bluetooth symbol on it. I just took my 04 in last week and had the bluetooth turned on! it was pretty awesome!

My Ride: 04 545i
6spd m/t
Sport, Cold Weather, Logic 7
I leafed through the records and it appears the owner had both a 545i and 530i, and had the wheels swapped every winter. Unfortunately I guess the 530i was sold with the nice wheels 
No problems I am planning m6 wheels so the 17's are better if I want to use snow tires versus the all seasons currently mounted.

headlights are more like $2000 in Canada
try turning your key to the first stop and set your phone to pair
you can get an ipod connection on bavauto for i think around $180.
