Tunepoint and Iphone6

[Beef-Mc]

I have one of the original tunepointswhich has served me really well over the years but I've upgraded to an Iphone 6 so the connector no longer fits.

Does anyone know of its possible to get a new smaller connector wire from Renault or if I'm going to have to bin the tunepoint for something else?

I'm not sure of the connector you needed but would it work out cheaper to get one of these?

If it's the same as mine, can't you just swap the USB cable out for the new lightening cable?

I tried a cheap version of one of these adaptors but didn't work, would charge the phone but the music was a go. Genuine apple be any better, anyone had any experience?

Is your tunepoint the little black box type?

Yes, think it's got 2 USB inputs on it, can't remember as I've not been in the car for months.

Sounds like it then, there's a slot for a mini din connection which is what I've been using and when attempting to use the USB connector I just get an error message and it skips back to the FM radio.

Strange, mine worked ok with my 6 at last try.

Think so mate, there's been problems with third party Lightning connections since iOS 7... I'd always go genuine. I bought mine from eBay to save a fiver. Mine works fine with music.
