I brought a Belkin adapter from Amazon a couple of weeks ago. Connects to the bottom port of the iPOD.
Supplies power and gives a line out connection too.
Fantastic sound. Much better than using the headphone socket.

My MY07 came with Aux built in to rear seat console. I immediately went to Radio Shack and purchased a line-out (male to male) cable which connects with top of my Ipod and Aux connection in BMW.
The problem is the sound is very low and I have to turn my it very high to hear; I understand this is one of the limits of the line in connector on top of my Ipod.
So question is, should this (http://www.sendstation.com/us/produc...ineout-fw.html) make things better for me?
Is there another connector to Aux and bottom of Ipod out there?
Please let me know - and No, I am not going the way of FM transmitter as in July I will have whatever BMW comes out with.
Thanks.

Untill you get one of the more advanced options please remember the Ipod volume should be around 3/4 (maybe a little more) if you are not using a line out.
