Yes. A highline car audio place would be the place to ask.
I am looking at either a 2005 or 2006 525. Neither of the cars has navigation or bluetooth. Is it possible to have those installed?
Thanks,
Jeff

Dad had Bluetooth retrofitted at the stealership and it cost and arm and a leg.
Not sure where you live, but find a reputable car audio place in your city. Not Best Buy, Circuit city, etc. I'm talking about places that have new Porsches and BMWs in the bays.

If you are thinking of updating the car with factory navigation system, you need to see if you like BMW navigation system. Not all are same. New MB does not allow you to select specific address... which is stupid... who wants a navigation system that makes you find your place? Toyota system is a bit difficult to use and crappy ziggy line roads. Acura system is pretty nice... Older navigation system is just plain stupid.
If you are thinking of aftermarket one... Garmin Nuvis 660 is the best with all the features you wanted. You can go one step down on the Nuvis line with about half the price.

Thanks, Tiger. Can you think of a navi system that will use the "screen" I already have in my car, and a bluetooth option that will utilize the steering wheel controls?Originally Posted by Tiger
Thanks,

Steering wheel controls cannot be intergrated into. You will have to look into buying factory BMW bluetooth and navigation. Aftermarket solutions will not work for you. You might find a aftermarket navigation that will integrating into your factory screen but highly unlikely. Bluetooth, no.

Voice dialling, answering & ending calls & adjusting volume can all be done without taking your hands off the steering wheel.
Easy installation - plug-and-play.
