You do have to pay extra for the AUX jack. The part lists US$40, dealer installed I paid $140. That's the standard location that dealers will put it (in the glovebox, just to the left of the a/c control). However, there are many here that have installed it in a different location themselves. For me, I paid the dealer to do it, and MINI of Peabody put it on the inside "wall" of the left pillar, which I think is a great location. It's just 3-4" away from the 12V outlet, which is where my Belkin car charger goes, w/ the powered line out (much better sound than plugging into the headphone output of the remote control unit).

If I ever get back home I'll take a picture of the pillar mount and add to my gallery.
