Thanks. It has been a long wait. I wonder how long it will take my dealer to get his hands on one.

Very cool. I know where I'm going tomorrow.

Any idea if this can be done as a DIY or will it take programming?

Eh... do you lose the CD changer? or will the CD changer still function when you're not using the iPod?

Looks like it's one or the other. So if you have a CD changer you'll have remove it.

CD change does not work with this connector as printed in red. It's just ridiculous. I don't think this iPod adapter has a warm welcome from BMW owners. What the hell do you think are you doing, BMW?
