One tip I would give for the aux wiring is to get yourself some bushing contacts (61130006663) these slide straight into the connector blocks on the combox and aux in socket, which makes wiring a lot easier.

Now that I've done that, I fancy adding BMW apps 6NR - deepsrd or anyone else, do you know what's involved in that? So far I understand that you need another HSD cable to the combox and an FBAS-2 cable from the base plate to the head unit?
For 6NR, all you need is to connect an iPhone to the blue HSD connector via USB..
If you get more fancy, then you could get the baseplate and media snapins.. :-)
