Works perfectly! Find out about your car and install it yourself!

I had problems with the installation itself, I think it was because my Mini Cooper S 06 came with a Harmon Cardon sound system. So the wiring on the back of my radio was quite "tighter" than some YouTube tutorials I found. But after enough time and effort, I pulled the radio out just long enough to insert the clipped adapter. I routed the cable through the glove box (there was a flushed rubber hole that the previous owner used on his vintage iPhone, didn't want to try and upgrade it) and this cable works great! Stains here and there if the aux port is affected/relocated, but that could be due to the Apple Lightning to aux adapter and the poor quality aux cable I used to make sure everything was working before I reinstalled my Cooper's dashboard/radio bay. No doubt I would buy and install it for a friend, thanks for this affordable but great cable!

Pros
  • 3.5mm jack to connect to your IP or other MP3 player to connect to your stereo system. Because it connects directly to the Aux port on the back of the main unit, there is no degradation in sound quality. You must remove your stereo to install this kit in your vehicle.
Cons
  • Some small things
