@jo5566200 Mine is a MY 2006. If you have the BMW Assist, you get the rectangular mirror because of the call-home button on it. :(

By "this" I assume you mean the Radar Detector? It is a radio specially tuned for receiving signals that police use to measure speed.

I purchased the power cable from Radio Shack
