Hi Guys,
I have been pouring over these forums to try and find an answer to this problem and I think I have a solution but I want to check with the hive mind to see if there is any other solution.

I have a 2007 XK with no 30 pin adapter in the centre console or glovebox and I have no AUX showing in the display, all i want is to stream music via android and hopefully also get calls., preferably retaining the steering wheel controls.

I don't think I can use a Bovee type dongle as I don't have a 30 pin connector, unless there is somewhere to plug it into the back of the head unit?

The only other option I can see is something that plugs into the optic cable of the cd stacker which I do have.

That is this option

Does anyone have experience with one of these or do you have another solution.

Please only reply if you have a solution of meaningful comment so we can reduce thread spam

Thanks in advance

This ‘would appear’ to be a superior solution to the OldJaguar and JagAux products that require AUX enabled. It seems to be a stripped down version of their (Mr12Volt) CarPlay/Android Auto product, which has good reviews by users on this forum.
Feel free to be the guinea pig, and let the rest of the community know!

 

I don't know which models feature the compatible Ford 6CDX radio as shown but that is not the radio installed in our 2006 XK 4.2.

For our car, the simplest solution was to have AUX enabled for £50 and to install the Volvo Bluetooth module which cost around £15.

Once you had aux enabled, what did you physically plug the Bluetooth module into?

 

Plugs into the back of the infotainment stack. Unplug the big connector from the stack, plug that connector into a mating connector on the Bluetooth unit, and plug the Bluetooth’s replacement connector into the infotainment stack. So the addon module is inline with existing harness that plugged into the infotainment stack.
This is Cambo’s “Old Jaguar” version:

 

I found a place that can turn on the AUX for 75 euro, I was wondering with your volvo bt dongle does it allow you to use the steering wheel controls and phone calls?

 

You need to modify the Volvo dongle (move some wires) as it’s not directly compatible with Jaguar. Read this whole thread if interested:
Bluetooth without ACM

 

After some back and forth with the guy who sells them I ordered it so i guess I'm the guinea pig haha, ill tell you how it goes.

 

Will be interesting. Definitely a Mr12V without the carplay. Keep us posted!

 

My Mr12volt won't have carplay either though.

 

Ok so small update, this device will work with cars with the fomoco 6CDX, unfortunately my car has a 6CDI, so they will develop a new product which should be ready end of February which will work with my 6CDI player.

Project postponed for now.
