Radio AUX ipod cable
Just want to start a new thread on the R53 Aux radio cable.
If anyone buys one from WAYmotorworks, or one of the other vendors, ( I found one on ebay for $36 shipped), It's NOT necessary to pull apart your radio to install it.
Pull down the pannel below the steering wheel, and slide it into the back of the radio clip side up.
Took me about 45 seconds to install one today (without wiremanagement or drillling a hole, of course).
Not sure where it will get installed, probaly totally hidden in the removeable pannelbelow the toggle cluster.
In any event, don't make yourself crazy removing the radio, just go at it from the drivers side. Super easy.
