It's not quite the right fit so you have just trim off a little sliver of plastic on the connector in the car. Then bingo, an extra USB socket. I then routed the iPod lead up to armrest and tucked the remaining wire neatly away.
I used some scrap plastic foamex I had lying around and created an inlay for my iPod then finally topped it off with the 'compartment matt' (51169227902).
The graphic on the iDrive even seems to fit too...

What all did you need from that eBay link?
What did you need to trim?
