Has anyone used this? Have a CDR 220 and seems to be the simplest/best option for AUX capabilities for an iPhone 6. Just a bit pricey @ $80...

I usually drive with Google Maps or Waze running off my phone, so charging option important. Since will always be charging, less focused on Bluetooth. Never use the 6-disc.

Any other thoughts also appreciated!

 

I had the predecessor cable - not sure what it was called, but it had the larger connector for earlier iPhones and iPods. It worked very well. Over time, the left channel started cutting out and I would have to jiggle the cable to get it working again. It had no hands-free phone integration if I recall correctly.

I recently installed a CDR220-specific version of the iSimple Tranzit Bluetooth and love it. It is plug and play for the CDR220 and several other Becker radios. The hands-free phone and eyes-free Siri work great. It syncs automatically every time. About $110 plus shipping.

Very nice, Definitely getting it for my car.

 

Also works great with Pandora and Waze.

 

Thank you very much for bringing that to my attention. I also will be buying that to add to the car. Not that it would matter to most here, but by using the Sony SON-AUX PIE ( http://www.crazystereo.com/pie-sonaux-p-4015.html ) you can retain the use of the CD changer. It cares not what the audio source is. Once it detects a signal form the "other than CD changer" source, it just switches the audio to that device. The only caveat is that the CD changer will be continually playing the CDs and displaying CD # and Track # on the display, (because of course the head unit operates based on the CD player playing) instead of just "AUX" if you delete the changer. The vast majority here never use the changer anymore, but for the few die hards like myself, this is a working option.

I would probably want to use a Porsche momentary rocker in a spare slot, (like I did for my garage door opener) rather than the one that comes with the kit, too. There used o be a list of rockers and their symbols somewhere...anyone have a link?

 

I believe if you get the version without the plug & play cables for the CDR 220, you can still use your CD changer. That version plugs in between antenna and the radio and works slightly differently. You can check the video on the website.

 

I've bought them also from the same company. They work great. But I use my Motorola head set to make calls.

 

I can confirm this is correct, I just did the install last weekend of the BLU HF, non-model specific one. It also has a 3.5mm male output for aux in that can be used with a cable like this (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/391391451648?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT) and a female to female 3.5mm connector if you don't want to use the radio antenna input. As well, I believe with the antenna input, you may need some sort of adapter.

 

Installed the il-bkr cable yesterday. Wish I did this a year ago, exactly what I needed.
