THIS IS THE BMW CD CHANGER THAT PLAYS MP3s. Don't waste your time with other CD changers that may or may not work.

CD changer works in all BMWs with standard 3 pin and 6 pin audio input connector. Will work with BMWs equipped with DSP IF they were built after 09/01 and do not use the SPDIF cable from CD changer to DSP amp. BMW no longer uses this SPDIF cable in order to support the Sirius radio audio inputs.

If your BMW radio was manufactured (or replaced) AFTER 08/05 your display will also show MP3 ID3 Audiotext as shown below! Audiotext is displayed in cars with and without navigation!
