Iphone 5S...charge it and adaptor??
Discussion
Hi, have a 08 4.7 Vantage so only has the "old" iphone connector without charge facilitiy. Now whilst me car is at AMW i have emailed them today to see if its possible (and cost!) to change the connector to a 5S compatible one with charge facility. But is there anything else i can do that is cheaper aftermarket??
I know there was something on Amazon which worked with the older style connectors but i dont want to go down the connect 3 different leads method if i can help it.
Thanks in advance.

I would have suggested using the "cigarette lighter" power port or USB port in the arm rest to charge the phone and get one of the bluetooth streaming adaptors that fit onto the old iphone lead for the music. I hesitate as I'm not sure how the later would work if there is no power on the lead (there was a thread on here about them a while back). That combination would require just plugging in the iphone into the power when you're bothered about the charging. I've personally given up using my iphone for music in the car anyway and just go for a big USB stick when I'm not listening to the cars own sound track.I know there was something on Amazon which worked with the older style connectors but i dont want to go down the connect 3 different leads method if i can help it.

Hi
My post from a few days ago (title: MY08 iPod charging - Scosche passPORT) should help:

I've read that an apple 30pin to lightning adaptor (less than £5 on ebay or £25 from apple) added to this works a treat.
