Okay, I bought some apple component cables to hook up to my iphone, thinking I could watch videos through the phone when the car is parked. I can hear it but not see it when I plugged it in. Do you have to have the premimum package to see videos or is there something I am missing? BTW...the cables work fine when watching video through my iphone on my television set.

 

Is you car in PARK with the emergency brake on?

 

Emergency Brake!!!!! No...I didn't have it on. I will try that! Thank you!

 

The E-brake should do it for you. I remember getting frustrated getting video through my iPod and all it took was a little kick of the E-brake.

 

I don't understand why they make us set the e-brake on an AT sedan. Kind of hard to drive while in Park.

 

HAHAHA^ So what cables did you get to get video with the iPHONE?

 

I got the Apple component cables...but...I bought them on ebay for $15 as opposed to the $50 they want at Best Buy.

 

Can you post a link?

 

It was a true auction that I won...he has a few more I think. Here is the stuff he has for sale right now.

does it make a difference if i don't have navi?
Also from what i'm reading, i would need i component instead of composite cables?

 

you want composite. component is red, blue and green video feeds separate. composite is a single yellow video output. i bought the official apple ones on ebay because they have a USB connector on one end so you can charge it while using it.

the e-brake thing is so they're not liable when someone buys the car and crashes it while watching a video. smart move on their part, pain in the butt for us.

 

...but why require the e-brake and Park on the Autos. You cant drive while in Park. The e-brake is overkill is all I'm saying.

 

I made mistake...it was indeed composite cables not component.

 

oh i'm not saying you're wrong lol. just more of an insurance policy on their part i bet, who knows.
