1. If you connected the BMW OE Aux input adapter to pins 3, 4, and 10 of the black radio input plug, then you should see "AUX" on the radio view when you cycle through the inputs with the MODE button. It does not have to have anything plugged into the Aux input adapter.

2. That 2nd little coax antenna cable is no longer used with the New Gen radio.

3. Yes, you can get an RCA to stereo headphone adapter from Radio Shack that will convert your DVD player's RCA audio outputs to a standard stereo headphone plug.

4. The -716 CD audio input cable will solve your no CDC problem. That connects to pins 2, 8, and 9 of the white radio plug.
