Fits Infiniti G37 2009

After years of trying to figure out how to securely connect my phone to my '09 Infiniti G37 with steering wheel controls, I finally found the solution! My '09 G37 has one built-in socket for iPod, which comes with a 30-pin cable. I've used a setup ranging from a built in 30 pin to 5v converter (from cablejive) to a 30 pin to 30 pin extender to a 30 pin lightning cable. This worked fine, but kept disconnecting for no reason, requiring me to reconnect. I also tried Coolstream, which didn't work either. I gave up and went back to my previous crazy setup, but then I decided to try the Bovee and damn I'm so glad I did. In the beginning I had some problems. When connecting to the 30-pin OEM connector, there was a problem getting enough power. It doesn't work well with CableJive either. I was actually going to return it until** I decided to add extra microUSB power to CableJive and lo and behold, it actually worked! When you start the car it completely beats any setting I've had before. I don't even have to take my phone out of my pocket and it starts playing my music. Although my wallet suffered a little from the $90 price tag, by god it's worth every penny! I've added a photo of my center console for anyone wondering what it looks like. The cable at the bottom is a backup cable for 3.5mm, which unfortunately doesn't connect to the steering wheel, so it's not a good solution. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions if you also own an Infiniti and I'll try to help answer them! Note: At the time of review, I can't find the cable dock on the Revain that I used in this setup, which is a little concerning. . Luckily I still have one, but if it breaks I'm a bit worried about finding another one. If I find a good one I will of course post it here.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Negative present
