What is the purpose of this cable? It looks like the cable type for an iPod player.

 

It is indeed a I pod or i phone connector.
Replaces the CD stacker .I have 400 + tunes from I tunes .
The centre rotary **** on the infotainment controls them .

 

Just to be clear, it does not "replace" the CD stacker, it adds to the media input, the CD stacker is still functional.

It is a factory option, you can also get USB, 3.5, and a BT cable adapter.

Thanks guys. Guess I'll buy an adapter so I can play my music files from a USB thumb drive.

Does that BT adaptor allow you to stream audio from your phone Johnny? That sounds (no pun intended) like an even better option!

 

I have not received mine yet, the 3W0 035 341B module is in the mail, pictured in my previous post, I will wire it up and report back after installation and purchase of BT piece.

 

OK look forward to hearing how it works out. Approximate cost of that BT adaptor?

 

I am thinking this one, I know it shows "2011 Bentley", but I am going to give it a try.

How about one of these? Is there an aux out port on the head unit or CD unit?

or this one looks like it plugs right into the existing iPod cable:

Hello Randy,
As to your first question, no, neither one, next, I believe you meant AUX in, not "OUT", and no there is no AUX in or out.

As to the two listings, neither, as the first and second are just BT transmitters, and being the Bentley lacks A2DP it will not receive the music, also notice that the second item has a male ipod plug (meaning that it plugs into the ipod/iphone not the cable in your car) as does the ipod/iphone cable in your car, again the 2nd item is just to transmit the music from an old ipod or nano that most likely lacked BT in the first place to say wireless BT speakers or headphones, at least that's how I see them.

 

The item I posted has a female slot for the cable in your glove box to plug into, it is also a BT receiver, not a transmitter.

Yep, quite right - it needs to be a receiver not a transmitter. LOL

 

Have you received the BT device yet?

Perhaps letting us know ho well it works?

Thanks.

 

Hello @Randy V ,
I will post up some pictures when I return from holiday.
