Anybody got a link to a decently priced OEM ipod cord? my 2012 XKR didnt come with it (original owner must have taken it) and I didnt notice till after I purchased the car... been switching the cord that came with my 2013 around and I think I should just spring for one... anybody seen one better priced then 87 bucks?

If you have an extra iphone charger, you can use that as well. It both works the music and it charges the phone. That's what i have been using.

 

I purchased one on Amazon for about $30. It works well with the music but didn't charge the phone (iPhone 4, 5 and 5S were all tried). Frustrated, I sprung for the $87 one from the dealer and it works great. I got my $30 back from the amazon vendor by the way. If your time is money, I recommend going straight for the dealer product and save yourself a lot of messing around.

 

The vendor sold you an old chord made for the iPhone models 3 and earlier. (My 2010 came with the same one.) you need a charging adapter like the one by Scosche to use this chord for charging newer phones (another 30 bucks or so). If anyone sees a Jag adapter chord for sale make sure it's from MY2011 or newer so that it works directly with the iPhone 4+ models. I just use the adapter because I already had the chord.

 

I think you're right even though it was specifically advertised for MY12+. I did a lot of research on those differences before I purchased it. I thought about the Scoshe and others and decided at that point I'd only be a few bucks away from the dealer cable. So one refund and a trip to the dealer later, and all is good.

 

I recently bought a dealer cable for my 2010XK and still needed the Scosche adapter to charge the phone. It's not that big a deal since I also needed the Apple lightning adapter for my iPhone 5s. I got the Apple one that has a bit of a pigtail so it's easier to plug into the phone with the case on. So I have Jag cable to Scosche to Apple adapter.
