Does anyone hav any guidance here?

Unfortunately, as you all much know, the Bluetooth only works for phone calls, not listening to music from a smartphone. At some point we may look at other bluetooth options, but in the short term, I thought this might be an easy alternative. 

Thanks for any insight.

We don't have a definite answer, but it is probably 'possible'...  Some of these features are software driven so it may involve a trip to the MINI dealer to 'enable' the function...
