A bluetooth kit is probably the best way, Nokia CK100, Parrot CK3100 are two such kits.

If you'd prefer someone else to fit for you and a more OEM-type install (using the BMW stereo or i-drive screen to show caller info etc) this fella has been recommended on a BMW forum if you're in NW area:

Depends on the spec and age of your car mate, if you have factory sat nav you should be able to add bluetooth to it (you need to make a loom and buy the parts you need) for about £150 max.

It's a 2005 model with dvd sat nav. I've seen the phone sets that fit under the lid between the two front seats, are these expensive or am I better sticking to the bluetooth option? Thanks
