I have a 2006 S model with navigation and HK system.

I want to get a cheap bluetooth/sd card/usb NON CD stereo.
Crutchfield gives the choice of with HK OR with navigation but not a choice of them together.

So what plug adapters do I need to install a bluetooth radio and where can I buy the plugs? I found some on Ebay and amazon that looked like they might work but were all from outside of the U.S.

Something like this https://www.crutchfield.com/p_105KDX...5BT.html?avf=Y

Crutchfield lists the install stuff as a complete steering wheel package adapter.
I DO NOT have steering wheel controls.

I just need an adapter to plug into the factory harness and an adapter for the antenna.
I cannot seem to find them anywhere.

IS this what I need?

 

It seems that changing the stereo out with the HK system is a nightmare?

I can't find a write up or any info on swapping out a head unit with the HK system.
Has anyone ever done this?

 

 

See if technicpnp.com has what you need. If you can't find it send him a question. If BMW at the time had an equivalent hook up you might get lucky.

 

Going by the description, it looks like it will work, but it isn't direct plug and play — the picture shows individual wires that you'll have to connect yourself. The newministuff link posted earlier offers a plug-and-play version.

The HK and standard stereo use the same headunit. The headunit behaves differently when it detects an HK amp connected.
