Sl500
Hello I am new and have a few questions

Hi everyone I am glad to join all of you!!! I purchased my 2003 Black SL500 last night.

I have searched the forum but I have a few questions.

First what is the best way to add a ipod to the car? I have a iphone but I wouldnt work with my Bluetooth on my 05 745li so I doubt there is a way to get it to work in the 03...correct?

Last I have seen a lot of wheels out there that I like but they are all around $5000 is there a place to find some wheels that are a little cheaper than these and is there anything I need to know about changinf the wheels?

Sorry for all the question and if I am asking too much too quick please let me know. I know some forums people hate new users. So again I am sorry if I am asking too much

Thanks

Your 2003 should have an AUX jack in the glove compartment. Plug your iPod into this jack (make sure to use a stereo cable), press the AUX input on your COMAND and you should be in business.
