Recommend a Bluetooth/iPod kit

[msm]

Please can someone provide me with recommendations on a Bluetooth + iPod kit for a BMW E70 X5 with Navigation.

Ideally, I want something that I can control from the iDrive system and work with the factory steering control - seen quite a few kits on the US forums, but I'm not sure what's available locally.

Also, if possible, please give me an indication of prices and who I can visit regarding installation.

I just got the factory iPod kit for my E70 from BMW. It replaces the CD shuttle (who still uses these?) and allows me to control the iPod from the iDrive and the steering wheel buttons.

Installation takes about 10 minutes, but if your car does not already have a CD shuttle, it has to be coded by BMW which can take a whole day.

:thumbs: Thanks for the info. Will check with BMW next week.

I can do the coding for you, takes 3 minutes.

For the blueteeth, what are you looking for, just phone capability, if so, we can buy you a blueteeth module from a scrapyard, and retrofit it

Sounds like an interesting option - will chat to you soon about this.

Quite a few of the US guys rate the Dice Mediabridge quite highly - just don't know if anyone supplies them locally (and at reasonable prices).

Hi MSM, If you come right please let me know.

Im looking for the ipod cable.... Will they all be the same fitting to the CD Shuttle port?
