Where can I get a Business CD for my 1995 325i at a reasonable price, I checked eBay but they are only for the new ones. THanks in advance.

You're probably better of going for an aftermarket hu. E46's come with the business cd player if I'm not mistaken, and if your just trying to get a replacement or upgrade for your current system... seems that you could save money and get better performance out of an alpine unit or something. Is there a perticular reason you're looking for the official bmw one?

I already have an after market pioneer but I want my interior to look like it's all stock. I don't like the way it looks with an after market head unit.

an in-dash business cd, or a changer?

I guess I can understand you wanting your interior looking stock again, but be forewarned that the BMW buisness CD sucks. I don't mean that the sound is bad, it just skips alot and easily, and doesn't read burned CDs very well. The factory CD player in my 98 Acura Integra was 20x better than this one, it NEVER skipped and read everything flawlessly. Kind of annoying for the bimmers' to be so tempermental, but whatever. ust for the record though, even though it skips the Harmon/Kardon sound system is F***in incredible, best sounding factory system i've ever had.

look up Nakamichi...many of them are Matte Black finish with an almost perfect amber glow to them. not to mention they are great CD players...That would make for a good stock look.

i was looking up some hu for my 325i also... check out crutchfield.com... they have blaupunkts that look real good... mean they are all black and would go nice with the stock interiror... the one with mp3/wma is only $159... good luck...
