USB port addon

Hi, new to me 2010 Cooper Mini clubman S. Came with just the aux Jack. Can I swap out with the usb and aux connection? Or do I need something else to get the usb to work?
thanks

In for an answer to this. I have an '07 MCS that I upgraded to the LCI 2010 USB/Sirius/Bluetooth. I dont care about the sirius and the bluetooth, but I would like the USB to work. It looks as though I need a cable to run from the radio to the bezel that has the port...

There is a link somewhere around for the cable that runs from the radio to the usb jack...I paid $14 for it...let me see if I can locate it. Your car will need to be coded to make it all work though. That's the problem I'm having now...trying to find out how to code it.

Any resolution to this? I just brought home an 08 with the base stereo, and only an audio aux port, no USB. I'm really looking to add Bluetooth and it seems a lot of the affordable BT adapters I'm coming across need both connections.

Resurrecting this thread. Did anyone come up with a solution that works? My daughter's '08 MCS came with only an AUX port (no USB). Just looking for a way to add bluetooth for music streaming and phone calls.
