iPhone 5 Lightning Adapter

I apologize if this has been covered before but I couldn't find a thread.

Has anyone been able to get an iPhone 5 to work with the HARN-AUX cable and the extended 30pin to lightning adapter? I have it working with the non extended version but because of my case and such it'd be easier to use the one w/the extension.

There's a plethora of adapters available on eBay and amazon. Mines a generic one, "btr06" Bluetooth audio receiver. Blackberry also makes a good one.

can confirm that neither of the Apple lightning-to-30 pin converters worked for me.

I have a 2008 G35 Journey with Nav/Bose. I tried two converters from Apple: (1) http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD...apter?fnode=3c and (2) http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD...-02-m?fnode=3c.

When I plug either converter onto the factory cable, the phone doesn't even register as connected to the car.

Anyone else have the same experience?

Quick update on this. I exchanged the adapters at the Apple Store and still the same result. So I went and bought a new factory iPod cable from Infiniti and now I can connect my phone and use steering wheel controls (but not charging). Thanks for the info.

I am using the Apple 30 pin to lightening cable adapter. Attach to the native 30 pin in my car and to my iPhone 5. Works great and Pandora/ Slacker songs show up on the screen.

Does it also charge the phone?

Thought you all would be interested that I now have my 5S working with full steering wheel controls AND charging. Details and parts list are here: https://g35driver.com/forums/v36-aud...ml#post6835096.
