Which cable do you have? I believe BMW offer a simple AUX input, plus a cable that allows control from the MFSW. The $2xx was for the later
Thanks

Hi guys, I've been reading about the aux input mods over at Mini2 for MP 3 players. (I refuse to be a slave to Ipod ... Creative all the way). Does anyone now if the cable harness and fitting kits are available in Australia? Cheers Jas |

Jas Have you checked out this other thread? http://forums.ausmini.com/viewtopic.php?t=14292 The connection mentioned is just a AUX in, so you should be able to use any device (whether that be Creative/iPod/etc). The AUX in kit is available from BMW Australia, last time I checked it was a couple hundred dollars. Cheers Chris |

Chris, I looked at that thread but on checking the software of my Boost radio I come in at 41 not post-50 as discussed for the home-made jobby to work. Having said that I notice at newministuff they offer a '01/'02 Boost aux adapter kit for the CD changer interface https://www.newministuff.com/new/shop.p ... how&id=245 This would indicate something similar would work ... thoughts?

I used to be a fan of creative, however after a recent firmware update it made my creative player a pretty expensive paper weight. The firmware cannot be changed back to the old firmware and their customer service is horrible. I will NEVER buy another creative product again. I would recommend that users of creative products do some reading on some forums about particular updates before they do them. |

Jas I believe that the adapter that uses CD changer is certainly an option for you. (unless you have a CD changer) |

Chris, spent some time with the parts manager at Alto yesterday. Essentially I'm a month out from the mini aux kit fitting (car needs to be built after 09/02) and they have no other option. Based on that I purchased the kit above from the UK yesterday and received an e-mail that it had been dispatched this morning. I spoke with Mike (the owner of New Mini Stuff) and he assurred me that the cable I purchased is exactly what I need ... I let you know how it goes. Jas |
