Had mine done by Benham-BMW in Wolverhampton on 21st December and looking at the invoice it reads:

Supply and fit auxillary audio input to vehicle
B65.12.0.153.502 008999/Aux connect 1 @ ?34.00
Labour 12.00 ?90.60
Sub-total ?124.60
VAT @ 17.5% ? 21.81
Grand total ?146.41

Hope this helps....

Why you did not Dension Ice Link Lite? (http://www.dension.com/icelink_lite.htm) , It is a much better alternative as you get sound from Line out of the Ipod instead of headphone outllet (much better quality and not affected by Ipod sound level) also it provide charging to Ipod. Not to mention the huge price difference.

Using the monster cable with the AUX input already provides charge to the ipod and the line out.

That was all labour!

Thanks for the offer to dig out the invoice. At the moment I'm waiting for the dealer to get back to me, I sent them the other prices people gave.
