BMW drivers (UK) with iPhone 6's AUX lead question

[ravinder08]

I was wondering if any one in the UK has found a lead to connect iPhone 6 to the usb/aux connector in BMW's so it will work with the stereo.
Used to have one for my iPhone 4s but struggling to find one for my iPhone 6

Thanks

Have you tried the Apple 30 pin to lightning adapter? That should work with your existing BMW y cable.

They make Lightning port extenders for such a situation. Check 'em out.
