Yes with a 'y' cable if you have the USB socket or a phono cable if you only have the aux input. Both within your centre consol.

Have you not read the 100 or so similar threads posted on here in the last year asking the very same question. It's not like you don't come here often

I use the aux input cable. Annoying as you can't change tracks or control it, but gets the job done. No way I'm paying £400 for BMW just to install a cable.

I have a funny little hole in arm rest thing! ThaT is it? how much is the cable?!

If the USB socket is already installed then its about £30ish for the 'y' cable. I suspect Carl may not have the USB socket pre installed

A double ended 3.5mm phono cable is about 2 a penny on fleabay. About £1 from most ipod accessory stores.

I tried a phono cable in the AUX port but it sounded real sh*t!..

It was all distorted...

TURN DOWN THE VOLUME ... ahh yes, that's better, yes, Turn down the volume on the device. That's the kind of thing that you would get if you were putting too high a signal level into the car.

There's a volume problem plugging directly into the aux port. I've got a thing you plug into the 12v socket that sits in between the device and the aux port. It's in the car, so you can have a go on Friday (I don't use it as have got the Y cable)
