This is a breakout cable from the Business Radio AUX port
to lightning connector for power, and 1/8" headphone plug for audio

...may be of interest to iPhone owners. I have been unable to learn the free cable length.

I also note on Amazon that people are selling 3rd-party conventional AUX cables for around $8.00. (https://www.amazon.com/Female-3-5MM-Adaptor-Changer-iPhone/dp/B00K9EOW8S/)

That’s slick, and a lot better deal than the BMW y-cable.

I’ve been thinking about hacking up a lightning cable to make something compatible with the newer iPhones without headphone jacks (so courageous!)

I️ too have gone headphone jack-less thanks to the boys from Cupertino :-(
I’d be interested in one that had lightning audio. Until then I️ guess I’ll use my cheap BT kit.

Having posted this I would point out that this is an unknown mfr/vendor, and that lightning cables are particularly sensitive to being made out-of-standard.

Personally, I have the audio and power leads of my home-made lightning harness bundled together (I get power from the lighter socket), and don't really mind the compromise.

(The total cable length is said to be 1.5m.)
