The best iPod integration kit on the market for MINI just got better. If you have a BMW and an iPod - you need this kit.
Connect your iPod to your vehicle's factory entertainment system and hear what your iPod should sound like in your MINI. CD-quality sound and controlled from your MINI's radio or steering wheel buttons without the need for messy adapters or FM transmitters. The DICE SILVERLINE PRO iPod integration kit always keeps your iPod integrated, charged and ready to go. The DICE SILVERLINE PRO iPod integration kit will also display text from your iPod onto your BMWs Radio/Navigation display allowing you to view Artist, Song Title and Album name while both hands are safe on the steering wheel.
The SILVERLINE PRO kit adds a new operating mode called SMART Mode. This mode allows users to switch between Locked and Display Modes using the Hold button on the iPod.
The Radio interface version of the DICE kit is a favorite among professional installers. This kit allows a direct connection directly at the radio, eliminating a long cable from the CD changer connectors in the trunk. This also provide a shorter cable route, reducing the possibility of engine noise. The Radio interface kit is also choice for euro models that do not have CD Changer prewiring.
A clean factory looking installation is possible with our sleek iPod docking cable (included), allowing full connectivity for all iPods utilizing a dock connector - including the iPhone & iPod touch.
The DICE SILVERLINE PRO iPod integration kit connects right to the cd changer connectors or radio connector (depending on configuration) already present in your MINI. The DICE SILVERLINE PRO module transfers information between the iPod and radio through an included iPod-specific docking cable, as if it were an original MINI accessory.
