3 options as I can see them:
 
1) Buy the Belkin FM transmitter which pops into the top of the iPod. It can transmit all the iPod's music wirelessly to any radio station you desire. Used one with pretty good results in my old car, a BMW.
 
2) Have an after-market docking station installed. Be warned that this is still a very new process and that I wouldn't trust anybody to mess around my beautiful M's guts unless I had first seen their work firsthand.
 
3) The solution I hit on. The cd player is also an MP3 player. That means that I can burn my entire 5GB of MP3s on normal CDs and the CD player will play them perfectly. Plus, it will also display the title, band, and other information on your screen. Very cool and very easy.
 
Hope this helps!

Unstable Driver's Seat by blackkhightf3

Have you folks who are of the weightier size had any problems with the driver’s seat in the M35x? I’m 6’4" and weigh about 245. I’ve had my car for a few weeks now and I’ve noticed that upon acceleration or deceleration, even the slightest, something under the seat, maybe a spring or mount moves and causes a slight thump sound. It’s a great car overall, but the thumping is getting to be rather annoying. The G35 that I had for few years seemed to have seat mounts that were somewhat weak. I expected the M seats to be lot stronger. Maybe I should lose a few pounds.

low beam headlights and rubber seal around door by ritter3
Aug 08, 2005 (11:04 am)

I purchased a m35x in April. The car is the best car I ever owned. The only
complaints is the low beam headlights and the rubber seal around the driver's
door. I have 3500 miles on the car and the seal is worn thru. When I drive
at night I can only see a few feet in front on my car. I'm in to turns before
have time to react. It tends to slow me up on curvey roads.
 
Is there anybody else with any of these problems?

I too had a problem with the high intensity low beams, as did consumer reports in this month's issue- this was the only fault in a car they said was the new #1 among ALL cars tested- including full size luxury cars. However, I had the dealer adjusted the lights at my insistyence 1" higher ( normal 30"- I asked for 31") and its better- and I have not had any oncomming drivers flash their lights that mine is too high when using low beams. I am not sure how it is adjusted for a do it yourself job - does anyone know how to do it?

Well, I'm 180 lbs, and I needed to have the driver seat rails assembly entirely replaced because it was too loose. When braking moderately hard, the seat would move forward by a few mm, and then come back. I had to argue a little, but they finally conducted the repair (and it takes a full day).

I had the drivers door seal replaced at 7,000 miles. Its very soft and appears to have torn due to entry/exit wear.

I have the problem that the halogen high beams seem to "wash out" the Xenon low beams. Do you know if the high beams can be replaced with Xenon? My dealer told me no, but my last to BMW's have bi-xenon lights. Any suggestions?

You may find state laws dictate the legality of high intensity high beams. I believe the high beams are changing the color temperature of the high intensity lights, and not washing them out (IE negating their effect).

Thanks, I'll check into it.
 I believe that when you dealing with 2 different light sources, IE Xenon and Halogen, that they don't work well togetherwith the different spectrums of light they provide. As I said, my last 2 BMW's had bi-xenon headlights, so I'm assuming that there shouldn't be any legal or state issues here in PA.
