So no added benefits to using the snap in connector vs USB, the adapter is easily attainable but wondering if you will gain anything.
Well the snap in will allow video playback. Pending your parked or pending you coded the car. However it's a very expensive piece of plastic if you want my opinion. I have an iPhone 4 that I use because my iPod wouldn't work in the adapter. Then I checked for the iPhone 5/s and that media adapter had problems, and BMW was recalling the ones that hasn't been sold by their dealers. If you plug in the single USB cable, you will still do album art, playlist, bmw connect apps (pending you have the service), and charge your iPhone at the same time. Was there anything in particular you were looking to do?
