The adapter cost $400 plus $200 to install it. Note this was for a car without iDrive. The adapter goes in the glove box, and allows the car stereo controls to operate the iPod. Yes it charges the iPod at the same time. The problem without iDrive is you only get a list of the songs alphabetical order on your iPod and they are not broken down by Artist, Album. Or you can choose a playlist. The problem is if you have about 3,000 songs like I do and you want to listen to one that's not in the beginning of your list. You will sit there and scroll through the list forever. It's ridiculous that it will not let you choose by artist then album. Quite impractical, the dealership also agreed with me and took it out for a full refund. I imagine it's better with iDrive?
