Almost have the complete Kit

Two shipments later and they didn't send this part, 1 Monster iCruze™ Interface Module, $0.00 each, $0.00, Item #
125362-00, MPC FX IM-BMW1 - Interface Module- BMW .
Monster customer service pulled up my order and said yep didn't ship, can't understand why, we will take care of it. So now waiting on third shipment.
I used the auto config. on their web site to order mine. What I don't like is their inventory control, the packing slips don't itemize Kit components and list status of components of the order on the slip. This puts the inventory control tracking on the customer who may not really know what they are supposed to have to make the thing work.
I guess it will be Spring before IBicruzeIN/ipodIN in de MINI.

Quick questions,
Do you loose the operation of the built in HU CD player or can you just unplug the ipod and select CD then play CD's.
Is the AUX port still available with iCruze wired and connected to the HU.

You still can play single CDs in the HeadUnit (the part in the dash), you lose the 6 Disc CD Changer in the Trunk.

Thanks for the answer
I don't have the optional 6 Disc CD Changer in the boot anyway, I just wanted to be able to still use my CD player now and then.
How about the AUX port?
Shankrabbit (< maybe misspelled) posted a link for a neat homemade AUX port cable that could be used for other audio devices than an ipod.

Not sure on the AUX port, don't know where it plugs into the back of the Head Unit. Looking at this image (From Mini2)
I don't see an AUX input.


Sorry,

Scott
