JaseNZ 53 Report post Posted March 5, 2010 My e46 has the business cd/radio (single slot up front) but no stacker in the boot. Its pre-wired for it though. jochen gave me a good link to a system where you can use an sd/usb but its a bit on the pricy side for me.I have been looking at the latest DICE system, It looks pretty much plug and play so all i would have to do is pickup a cheap ipod to put all my music on. Anybody else run one of these units. Cost is $153 USD plus postage (dunno how much that will cost). So at around the $210nzd mark that's not to bad of a price to have all your music on tap i would have thought. Pro's / Con's ?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3NTIL 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2010 yip i run a dice system ive got the screen radio instead of the business radio so its a bit easier to use because it has a heads up display it is pretty easy to install and use just have to read over the instructions a couple of times to get it ...haha the only problem is u have to set up your ipod semi well with all the artist ect.....

Docile 64 Report post Posted March 5, 2010 what audio system will that work in? it replaces the cd changer in the boot right? will work in a 7 series? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hybrid 1039 Report post Posted March 6, 2010 Use to run a Dice system on the business .. then changed to a Intravee II. On the latest software the Intravee is a far better system, however the price after you buy the Alpine KCA-420i interface module makes it a fairly expensive solution. Im running 16:9 nav so I need it. PM jochen about another option. A memory card based 'cd changer' which I think was around 250 odd euros. Looked very promising.

central3 31 Report post Posted March 28, 2010 Hi Jochen - thanks for all of your help - embarassed to say that it ended up being a faulty cable connector - excellent radio reception now and the Denison IPod converter is working a treat (pricey though) - thanks again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
