Application and Compatibility

The presented USB AUX socket is intended for popular BMW series models such as E60, E61, E87, E90, and E91, which feature factory multimedia systems with the possibility of expansion with additional inputs. This component allows for integration with the existing wiring harness and center console panels, serving as a functional addition to the interior equipment.

Thanks to the use of an original BMW solution, the module is compatible with audio and navigation systems designed for these vehicle generations, which promotes full compatibility with factory control functions from the radio or iDrive.

Construction, Color Scheme, and Installation

The socket is made in black, which facilitates aesthetic matching with standard console and center tunnel panels. The design is intended for installation in a dedicated mounting location, so after fixing, the element forms a seamless surface with the surrounding plastics.

The placement of the USB and AUX ports ensures convenient access for the driver and passenger, allowing for quick cable connection without altering the original installation. The use of a factory solution minimizes the need for wiring modifications or additional socket shape adjustments.

Benefits of Using the USB AUX Socket

Using this module in BMW E60, E61, E87, E90, and E91 series allows for expanding the multimedia system's functionality with convenient connection of:

• music players and smartphones via the AUX input,
• data carriers and selected mobile devices via the USB port,
• wired audio accessories without the need for non-factory adapters.

This solution helps maintain the factory interior character while enhancing the comfort of daily vehicle operation, especially on longer journeys where access to personal music sources is important.

Product Condition and Service Purpose

The USB AUX socket is a secondary market item, making it an attractive alternative for repairs or equipment upgrades in older generation BMW cars. It serves well as a replacement for a damaged module or for adding USB/AUX functionality to vehicles that did not originally have an active console connector.

This type of solution is particularly useful in workshops specializing in the BMW brand and for users who perform interior upgrades themselves, where compatibility with the factory installation architecture is crucial.
