I heard, that the speaker connection in the luggage boot is the same as from BMW models from previous years is you have the hifi speaker option, so i can use a mute box from older models to hear my phone over the car speakers, is this correct.

I understand that, but to connect your phone to the speakers you need a mute box, not for the mute but to hear the talking over the car speakers.

I can be done...I did it, using an old connector block, but I did it at the rear of the stereo, it was a nightmare to dismantle, so I'm not gonna post pics now.
Be very careful - the connectors are very stiff and very fragile. I broke the optic connector, whic I thankfully meded with some super-glue - could have costme a mint.
BMW say it cannot be done. true.

It is possible, don't let anybody tell U it won't work.
My dealer just installed it for me. Nokia blue-tooth car-kit.
in combination with optimout mute box for E60.
It is a hell of a job, little to small space behind the radio but,
it sounds perfect, ten times better than the little speaker nokia delivers.
