Thumbs up

I've installed the iPod interface (The one that works w/iDrive) and now I want the Aux input and I need an answer fast, anybody has these two and can they both be installed and coexist?
(I believe the answer is yes, but I've been told different. Also, I think this has been discussed before but I could not find the thread)

I believe they should be as different inputs are used in the back of the head unit.

Yes they can coexist, The Most will just replace the CD changer and the Aux will just be another input.

I've installed the MOST already. Trying to purchase Aux input but I've been told they could not co-exist. In my mind, since the Aux input is standard equipment now, and the MOST can also be installed, then they could coexist

You are right

I have installed the MOST which replaced my CD changer and my dealer said they could also fit an Aux if I want too, no problems. But I do not need it

Just an observation - I'm surprised that you don't have Aux In at the rear console on a March 2006 car.

Or maybe you do but as you say, you don't need it (like me).

I want to install Dom's interface and have a DVD unit somewhere, that is why I want to install the Aux input. Perhaps I would not have bought the iPod Most unit if I had knew this before.
