Yes it's the E38 E39 E46 E53 E83 or Range Rover I-bus version, swap the unit in the boot and that's it, all the controls work as standard. Some people have needed to fit an amplified aerial but I didn't, guess it depends on the condition of your original aerial and the signal strength in your area. Search ebay for BMW E46 hybrid tuner. Best with a widescreen head unit, again the E46 unit is a straight swap electrically but you have to cut the top two mounting lugs off the unit to get it in the console.

Stocktake's solution is the cheapest I've seen and not as complicated as it seems.
