Anyway, back on topic.
I was waiting for someone to say it! lol

The iPod interface works over the fiber optic cable so it does not occupy the pins required to hook up the AUX cable. Same goes for OEM sat radio or CD changer.

After taking my dash apart to see where to attach the aux input I discovered both lower ports to be absent. The black pin box pictured in your photo is absent - I believe it's called X13813 in some diagrams. It's also called A2 on the diagram of bmw's oem aux input. I have searched and searched and can't find the part # for the box. Any idea what the part number is? Or if I were to buy your aux input, will that box come with it. The pins are present that the pin box would attach to, so I believe the only extra thing I would need to attach your aux to my car will be the A2 piece that is present on the oem connector. Thanks.

I have them on hand. I don't usually send them with the cable because this is the first I have heard of someone not having one. I have installed 8 locally and all of them had it. The only reason I have them is because my Z4 did not have it and I am thinking of making a cable for the Z4 group. Order the cable and make a note in the "note to seller" section telling me to send you one. It is weird that you dont have one though because that is where your amp connects to back of the radio.....Typically. Anyone else who needs one please let me know I have 100. lol

I have sold through the ammount that eBay will allow me to with being a new user. All orders are shipped BTW. If you would like to purchase this cable please PM me your email address and I will send you a PayPal invoice and we will do the transaction through PayPal instead on eBay.

Hey guys sorry for the delay in responses and for not getting the video redone. I got laid off with 1 hours notice yesterday and got my new job today so yeah it's been a crazy weekend. The drill bit that I used was a 1/4" bit.
