The difference between men and boys is the price of their toys.
Intelligence is not knowing the answer but knowing where and how to find it!

Either that or they don't want to tell you....
Firstly, not fitted one, secondly have you had a look here? Not sure
about help for the 7 from the description (as I dont have one), but
there is quite a good description for what is needed for the E46
(which you don't have and is of little help to you).

The difference between men and boys is age.

If anybody still has this on their view - Can be done but £4K GB Pounds - not
worth it.

Advanced Autovations sells retrofit kits; I've been putting off installing
one in my X so I can't verify first-hand what the process is like--but,
there's quite a few articles on X5 World from people who have used the kits.

We use the BTUM in our 2003 7 series with both of our Motorola V3 phones.
Cost @ $300 at dealer. There is a BTUM model for both the 8000 and 9000
model BMW phone, check your phone as BMW changed from the 8000 model to the
9000 model during the 2003 model year. The 9000 model which we have just
slides into place. The Bluetooth security number is printed right on our
BTUM. The 8000 model requires a little more fussing.
Also check the compatibility for your phone on the BMW site as not all
phones are guaranteed to work.

Thanks for that --------- I did find the US site Bimmernav? where they list a
couple of kits for the BMW phones.
However I bit the bullit and bought a 6 month old example with 3500 miles on the
clock - dealer demo - dealer principle transport - Small City in Scotland -
Inverness. September 2006 almost fully loaded.
Its the 730d (turbo diesel) - nice.........!
They delivered it free - all 1000 miles $100 diesel (UK Price) (50 litres) new
number plates and bluetooth phone cradle.
