How much bad luck can one guy have? Could it be time for you to update your signature.
I really really really do not understand why is anyone buying these pre-made? This cable will cost you $5 to make about 5 mins of time.
Instructions.
1. Buy a 3.5mm stereo cable.
2. Cut off the end you don't want.
3. Crimp on 3 tyco pins either bought from BMW or digibuy.
4. Job done.
5. Code using NCSExpert or go to someone who does this.

lol. yea guys you can get this http://www.parts-express.com/pe/show...number=090-317 and then you'll have to get a plug like this http://www.parts-express.com/pe/show...number=240-095 OR you can just splice this cable and use the L R and G and solder some tyco pins and plug it into you X block and route it through your armrest. No need for an additional cable.
For most of you that do not have Logic 7 you already have the little black plastic piece. If you buy an after market BMW cable you're going to have to take the pins out of the X block anyway and discard it.
as far as pins I think these will suffice. take them out carefully and solder them to your cable.

I have a genuine BMW aux cable (for e60) that i'm willing to let go for cheap since it's collecting dust at home. If anyone is interested PM me.

So I guess it's safe to say that brendin is gone with the wind and I wot be receiving any cable. Guess its time to make a claim with PayPal.

Don't loose hope just yet. I just spoke with Brendin, he's been in Europe without access, he'll be updating any issues shortly.

Anyway..i think most people just want news form brendin. If it's late then be it, if it's sold out then be it. The uncertainty is making people upset. Hopefully he's back from europe and can start responding,
