Ok...so if you drive your car off the lot, say in 2 months can you come back in have the iPod interface adapter installed?

Ok that was my question..I want to find out if I really need it, and if I do, I'll just go back to the dealer and get the dealer installed one :-)

Factory installed USB/AUX http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...99&postcount=1 Dealer installed MOST http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...09&postcount=1 The main difference is that the USB/AUX adapter allows you the addition of a CD Changer. The Dealer installed MOST adapter does not (it mimics the CD Changer). There are GUI differences as well (the USB adapter can show you Playlist names, the MOST adapter only show you "CD1", "CD-2" and so on)... Personally, I would like to listen to both adapters first before opting for either one: the USB uses the AUX port, the MOST adapter uses the CD Changer audio inputs. |

If you choose this route be prepared for a HEFTY labor charge for the dealer install. It is common for MINI dealers to charge $500 to $600 for the install--YIKES!

See this thread for what the nav and non-nav equipped cars will display. I posted multiple shots of each option.
