Just took it out to have another look at it and it is 2001. Are the replacement units similar working to the aux cord input where I can plug in my phone to listen to music? Do you know of any?

So I have a 2001 X5 E53 with a nav radio and want to install an aux cord. The videos I have watched explaining how to do It have a 3 pin plug behind the monitor that you use for the cord. When I took out my radio it doesn't have any extra plugs or cables behind it. Can anyone help me out? Is it at the back with the 6 disk changer?

I am looking to buy a x5 3.0 but I am being told to avoid BMW as prices to get any of these cars serviced will be $1000-$2000. Is this true? I know nothing about this sort of thing and need help. Are there any places that are reasonable with pricing? (Preferably in the Wellington region) Also how hard is it to find parts for a car like this? Thanks
