Now why would you want to pollute a perfectly good driving experience by turning it into yet another place where email can suck away your time, life, and soul? 
I really don't see that happening. BMW hasn't produced a car that requires a Y-cable for 2 years now, so I suspect people with iPhone 5s and older cars are out in the cold. However, you should be able to make it work in at least one of these two ways:
1. Buying a Lightning to Dock adapter and connecting your Y cable to that.
2. Using the standard white Lightning to USB cable and also a normal headphone cable to connect from the iPhone's headphone jack to your AUX In. However, the other option above would likely result in better sound since it would be delivering line-level audio rather than amped audio like the headphone jack does. |
Can't just add the iPhone 5 dock to my car to replace the Y cable hook up I have now in my 09?
