Subject: F56 Centre Arm Rest iPhone Adapter 31st March 2016, 15:43
Hi
I have just placed an order for a new F56 in Melting Silver , too which I will post photos later. Anyway, I have ordered the centre arm rest but does anyone know the best option for connection to my iPhone 6? I have been informed by the dealer that the adapter is around £180 My concern is that I will have to remove the phone from its case in order to use the adapter or I believe there is a 'Universal' kit available for about the same price.
Any ideas folks?

Do you have full bluetooth ? If so you don't need a physical connection at all.
I can stream or run the apps etc all over BT.

When I brought my MINI R56 I ordered the armrest fitter and the IPhone adapted to be fitted in the factory. I use it with an old iPhone for my music only and my newer iPhone blue tooths automatically for calls only. You can by a cable to plug in your phone into the USB socket. If it's just music you want use from your iPhone you can alway down load it on to a flash stick and plug them into you USB socket.
