528i and iPod

[awadhawan]

Hi guys,

I have a 1998 528i. I was wondering if there is any way I can intergrate my iPod with my car. Or what is the best way to connect the ipod to my Factory installed system other than those damn cassette adapters or FM tuners. In my previous car I just had an AUX cable come out from the back of the head unit and connect into my iPod and it had excellent sound quality. I can't live without my iPod and even worse...I can't stand bad sound quality.
Any kind of help would be really appreciated!

Cheers!

Amit

My best advice would be to change the factory fitted system and replace it with a Sony, with the auxillary inut on the face, failure to that then Alpine have done a very good Ipod ready system.

Check out www.bavauto.com and they have a Aux Audio adapter for MP3 players ($39-79) and two versions for iPods ($134-139).
