So I had to get the wife an updated 1 series, went diesel this time - much better for our lifestyle.

It's a  December 2005 build and I have 2 mods I'd like to get done on this one.

1. Bluetooth (it doesn't have it - or so I think it doesn't)
2. iPod connectivity - just want to see the Album/Playlist/Songs on the screen

I'm slowly getting through the babyBMW forum but wondered if any forum members on here have a similar spec second car and may be able to help me shortcut through to the answers.

Hey Sanj, bought the misses a 2007 120d m sport couple of years back,  it`s got a few toys including bluetooth and sat nav but no ipod connectivity (yet) . Give me a shout with any questions , glad to help if i can.

MJim they both cost around the same mate that's the problem!  And there was me thinking of getting a weekend warrior for this Summer too

Done it!

The car accepts the Parrot CK3100 with the additional quadlock loom. Car has the iDrive with single CD and DVD under that. Total cost for me will be £22 - BMW wanted £1100 for the OEM option and to bring it to the screen. Think I can live with the Parrot one (besides, its better)!

Retrofit iPod integration is available from BMW for £241. That gives me full integration onto the screen but I lose the CD changer. And as most women say 'it's not wooorth iiiit'. So for now it's on the back burner (hope the changer reads MP3s).

If anyone knows of a secondhand iPod integration for the 1 Series please let me know.

Glad you've achieved the desired result......

Now you're not busy, you just need to pop round to old Jiggy's and put his towbar on...... >:D

No doubt I'll have to fit it next week! It's with me as well!!!! ::)

You know me, I'll help anyone (if I have the time).

Besides he's kind enough to sort my Apple products and good to bounce ideas off of when you need advice from like minded folk - but yes, he's still a bum!  )
