Does anyone have the Radio Boost cd with a DICE ipod controller and the factory bluetooth armrest phone working together?

 

Very soon now, yes... but not yet. As soon as the big project is done...

I may end up deciding to disable the track names though, because it overrides the Nav screen in my MINI (in the brief testing I did). I think the problem is that it uses the Bluetooth text communication channel (like Caller ID) to transmit the track titles. I wouldn't be surprised if by the same token, it interferes with the OEM Bluetooth (which I do have too, BTW).

Even without track names showing (real bummer), the DICE will still be far superior to the OEM iPod adapter, at least in 1st Gen MINIs... at the very least because you can still select your artist/album/track directly on the iPod if you want to. No stupid restrictive playlist methods!

 

I'm going to try the trunk/boot interface kit. Do you think it will work? Tom from EAS thinks it will work.

 

Yep, that's the one I have... a necessity because I need to keep my OEM SIRIUS receiver working too. The receiver has a "pass-through" port that still allows the OEM CD changer (and devices that emulate it, like the DICE) to connect as well.
