Thanks Charlie and Silver. The installer stated that there were only 3 models that this was an issue on and that was the X5, the X3, and the 7 series that have the interated Bluetooth handsfree.

They stated that this was because the Pioneer deck is analog and the BMW models with the integrated Bluetooth have digital controls.

So they said that they could just hardwire the controls to make them work but then it wouldn't be able to be put back to stock in the future or they could try to get this module in the UK that would allow them to tie it in without any problem. But the company in the UK that makes them doesn't ship to the USA.

I've e-mailed PAC to make sure their module will work for this version of the X5.

Charlie have you installed an after market head unit in an X5 with the factory bluetooth integrated and been able to use the steering wheel controls?
