DICE link for ipod to your OEM head unit

[kvin08]

Hi guys,

Was wondering if any of you know about this unit called DICE from USA that can connect your ipod to the current OEM headunit of your BMW? It replaces the CD changer though........meaning the CD changer is no longer in use once you install this unit. Its not very ex but would like to know some feedback from people who might have installed this unit. Here is the website link:

european auto source - 714.369.8524 | how fast can we make your dream go, stop and corner?

Maybe you guys would know someone in Singapore that might be able to install this unit too. From the website it sounds easy.........but I am not really a DIY'er so screwing around with electrical stuff is just not my cup. Have a tendancy to break things than construct.

Cheers,
Kelvin

i just went back to SE, got her to order the parts in for me and got her to make an appointment for my car to come in, price wise i cant really rem as it was eons ago mate, but i do know prices have gone much higher, if im not wrong i was one of the first few to get em'. anyways.. why not give PML a call to ask for installation charges?.

Re: DICE link for ipod to your OEM head unit

thanks shaaz. just called PML. its a retrofit kit that is installed and it will cost about S$900 including labor / installation. Need to be indented (takes 3 weeks) and install is 2 days as programming needs to be done.
Is this what you got? btw, does the song title appear on the headunit? I assume the connection is in the glove compartment? Control still from the steering wheels?

Appreciate if you can shed more info in this.'

Bro, can you give an update after you've installed? Curious to see how it turns out. Thanks.

BTW, is yours E46 or E90?

Re: DICE link for ipod to your OEM head unit

Mine is a E46. I intend to do the installation by myself based on the instruction provided by BSW and i bought the toolkit as well.

Will provide an update end Mar as my friends on holiday in US will be bring the item back sometime in mid Mar.

I bought the ashtray mount for "multiple iPods/iPhone". Their tech help said i would be able to use both my 3rd gen Nano & iPhone.

Re: DICE link for ipod to your OEM head unit

HI any updates on the installation job? I find 2 days job by PML a bit ridiculous! I am unaware of any complications in installing such a unit. 2 days for programming? I mean wouldn't that make a DIY job very dangerous? considering that PML would have to take 2 days to do 'programming'?
