So, is there a way retain the Seeek and Volume feature on the switchpods after upgrading to a new radio head unit? The Blaupunkt I have has no CD drive--just a USB input, an Aux port, an iPod controller and a tuner, but I want to controll at least the volume remotely. Is this possible?
Will I be able to meld the wiring into the BMW's harness?

Hi luxustouring and welcome to the site Very Happy

Your link is brilliant, loads of good products and they certainly seem to have the connections we need. I've written to get more information as the K1100 lt isn't specifically mentioned.
Whereabouts are you in france?

Edit: in fact the K1100 LT is mentioned if you go into the pdf helpfiles. eg:http://www.ake-elektronik.de/motorbike-communication/motorbike-communication-system.htm

I had a couple of Blaupunkt units that I used on my K75RT. They did not seem to very happy with being vertically mounted and were prone to skipping on bumps. IF the newer ones have better buffering technology then they might be better than waht I had.

The Pioneer head unit I now have in the LT hardly ever skips, only on realy rough washboard type bumps.

I think the radio rack is supposed to resolve that but maybe it doesn't... only one way to find out! Cool

The issue is that they're mostly designed to be mounted horizontally. asome can handle a vertical mount better than others.
