So...I'm adding Alexa to my 2009 Vantage and need to stream audio.
I ordered a Bovee WMA3000A+ Wireless Bluetooth Music Interface Adaptor for in car iPod Integration (AMI/MDI connector) and the connector does not fit...
There is the older "1000" series but now there are two different cables to order...
One for "Bovee 1000 with RR iPod Integration Cable for Range Rover, Land Rover, Jaguar Wireless Bluetooth Audio interface Car Kit for in car iPod Integration" and
One for "Bovee 1000 with iPod Integration Cable AMI/MMI for Audi, Volkswagen, Mercedes Wireless Bluetooth Car Kit for in car iPod Integration" I read somewhere that the MB Cable seems to work in our Astons?
Does anyone know which cable works with our Vantage
For those interested in adding Alexa into their car. It works great...I have it in my 2016 Volvo Wagon. I can stream and navigate all with just speaking to Alexa, along with all the other stuff Alexa does. I control most of the lights, t-stat, door locks etc. with Alexa and they are controlled from the car just like at home.
You've probably got an answer already, but I have been using the Bovee 1000 for my bluetooth adapter. I have the standalone 30pin module because my car already has an adapter cable. I'm not sure if there's a difference between the two cables you are describing, but if your car already has a 30pin cable, you only need to buy the 30pin adapter module without the integration cable. The module worked great for my iPhone 6, 6s, and 7plus... but when I upgraded to the iPhone X, it stopped working. It kept giving me an Unrecognized Device message. I'm not sure if that's a Bovee 1000 problem or an Aston Martin iPod integration problem, but it's driving me nuts.
Now I can't play music from my iPhone X in the car wirelessly. Another reason not to upgrade to the X. I now have to bring the 7plus just to stream music to the Aston, and carrying around two phones just risks losing track of them.
So, i ordered the exact unit everyone is talking about (I thought) and was excited when I got it today. Except... it doesnt fit the plug.
The picture shows the Bovee item I purchased on the left and then the cord that is in the car now connected. You can see they are very different plugs at the end. Ideas?
