The factory CD changer, if installed, can NOT be used with the Interface and must be disconnected.
If factory satellite option is installed, you must use the ACC-BMW-SAT satellite cable (sold separately) with the DUO-100-BMW interface.
If vehicle is equipped with the DSP audio option, you must use the ACC-BMW-DSP add-on module (sold separately) with the DUO-100-BMW interface. (What is a DSP-equipped BMW vehicle?)

Product Description:
The DUO-100-BMW "Silverline/PRO" interactive iPod interface is designed to create a seamless interconnection between the iPod and the entertainment controls of many 1996-2009 BMW vehicles (Please see Specific Vehicle Application List). The kit connects through the CD changer port of the factory radio and will charge your iPod or iPhone™ and all newly released iPods as well. With the introduction of the Silverline/PRO integration, DICE continues to advance the features of their integration solutions.
Browsing on the iPod is intuitive and easy with the new DUO-100-BMW Silverline/PRO series interface, because it was designed for content navigation. Unfortunately, car radios do not present such a versatile user interface, and selecting between the 1000s of songs can be difficult. To ease content navigation the Silverline/PRO Series now includes a hierarchical filtering. First the contents are narrowed by selecting a Playlist, and then further narrowed by selecting an Artist. If desired, further content filtering can be achieved by selecting an Album. Of course, having Play lists is not a requirement, and users are free to explore music in their own preferred way. Best of all, while browsing for new content, playback of the current selection is not interrupted until an actual selection is made.
Vehicle with steering wheel controls will work well with the iPod interface kit, allowing the driver to change tracks and in some cases Rewind and Fast Forward. Having not only the ultimate experience for iPod vehicle integration, it also features an auxiliary input jack making a portable satellite radio or DVD player connection simple. The new interface supports all the latest iPod models including the new Classic, nano and the iPod touch.
