06.5 M5s got the Aux in put. Pre 06.5 M5s did not have the AUX input, so it all depends on which month your M5 was produced. I'd recommend getting a dension GW500. I love mine. It allows you to hook up a USB Thumbdrive, an Ipod, aux input, and keep your factory CD changer, and you can just switch between them through your I-drive menu.

i went with an OEM ipod interface and no longer use the aux input.
My advice, forget the aux input and go for a denison or ipod interface,
PS....bummer about the flat on the carrier....you must be jonesing hard
post pics of the beast when you finally get it! Also, are you upgrading from a 545? Post a review and compare the m5 to your current ride.
