Switching from Iphone 4 to Iphone 5!
Posted: Tue Mar 25, 2014 12:39 pm
Hi all,
This is my first post on here, I've had a search around to look for a solution to this already and can't find anything.
I bought my Polo brand new in 2010, I paid a little extra to get an ipod cable installed, this used to fit my iphone 4 and worked.
I've recently changed my phone to an iphone 5 and of course, the fitting for the cable is slightly different...
I've bought a few adapters for iphone 4 -> iphone 5 on ebay and tried just sticking them on the end of the current cable, but no joy!
Haven't took the head unit out to have a look at the other end of the cable, does anybody know if it's just a regular USB at the other end so I could just buy a replacement cable and plug it in? I can't see it being that easy though...
Does anyone know a relatively cheap solution to this which doesn't involve me going to my local VW dealer and paying way too much money for what should be a simple fix?
Thanks in advance,
Cal.
