it doesnt matter if it is your thing called BMW certified shop or Dinan authorized shop... bmw dealer is dealer if they have reprogramming stuff available... so next time just say bmw shop...
also it is plug and play for gateway 500 if they already have cd changer programmed.. if not they have to get that programmed...
so if i want to change my ipod interface to gateway 500 it is plug and play

We only have ONE authorised dealer here, and they will NOT do anything that involves parts not purchased from them!

For the most part you will need to get some kind of programming done. It really depends on your car and what features you have. I know some people who had a cdc and just installed the interface and it automatically recoginzed it, but did display mp3 text, so they had to go to the dealer to have mp3 text programmed. I just had my car reprogrammed at astounmical rate of 550 because they said the programming failed several times. However, my friend had his done for about $150.00. Just check around. It might be a little higher if you live in area where there are limited dealers, but if you're in a area where there are alot dealers, try to neg or lie and say so and so quoted me ...
