The BMW iPod Adapter, developed by Apple and BMW, provides seamless integration between an iPod and the car audio system in BMW’s 3 Series, Z4 Roadster, X3 and X5 Sports Activity Vehicles and MINI Cooper.
Drivers can control their iPod or iPod mini through their existing audio system and multi-function steering wheel which means no loss of power, no loss of sound quality and no loss of control.
To listen to iPod music in your BMW, you can either create up to five unique BMW playlists within iTunes, or choose to listen to your entire library. Once you’ve transferred your BMW playlists to your iPod, just plug your iPod into your glovebox adapter cable, select a playlist and you’re ready to take your tunes on the road. Amazing huh!

I own a 2002 BMW X5. I have been given an Apple Ipod. Neither the Apple distibutors nor the BMW dealers in Sydney are able to tell me how it can be integrated. Can some one please help me with an alternative which is both Apple and BMW approved.
Clive, have you tried Pioneer Electronics?
