Question Help with retrofitting Bluetooth + Ipod

Hey guys, I need some help...

I have a 2006 E90 with business radio, logic 7, non idrive and I want to retrofit / install hands free and ipod/iphone connection capabilities...

I have been doing some research on it, but I keep getting more confused, so can anyone dime in and let me know what are my options ?

Here is what I want to accomplish at a minimum:

Have the Bluetooth hands free and be able to use the steering controls to change the tracks on my iphone.

Here is what would be nice:

To have handsfree and audio streamed thru Bluetooth.

Now, I was looking at this:

http://www.mobridge.us/products/most-bluetooth-ipod-aux

I was also looking at the factory retrofit kits, but I got really confused... apparently I can do a TCU or a ULF retrofit, but I can't understand what is the difference, and my guess is none of those will give me the bluetooth audio streaming right ?

Btw what is the difference between the TCU and ULF !?

thanks in advance for any help !

I was in the same boat as you before, I got so confused and tired of researching I just gave up

To this day I still don't know where to start, but good luck with your bluetooth project. Let me know if you ever go through with this and get it all done, i'd like to know how to do this also.
