Iphone/Ipod inputs

Traded in a COUNTRYMAN for a Paceman. Had an ipod input AND an iPhone cradle input.

Paceman S has just one input for an iPod or an iPhone from what I can see.

Am I missing something or is there a work around...

What are you trying to do? If you have the iPod plugged in, why do you also need the iPhone plugged in?

Uhm, mostly because I want to....have access to my iPhone and Mini-Connected, while it's being charged...while also having access to the contents of my iPod.

I now understand there is a separate iPhone connection
available for the cradle. My sales advisor wasn't aware
during the sales process.

Don't really like using the arm rest/cradle for
the iPhone and haven't found a part number yet.

In my CM JCW there's also a usb port in the glovebox (is it the term right? - I meant the front storage box).
But if you plug 2 iphone/ipod at the same time (like I do to charge the one of my gf in the armrest (with media snap in)) and you turn on mini connected, there will be a conflict.
So the thing to do is to plug the first iphone/pod, turn on connected and than plug the second iphone/pod.
Ciao

I see. Android doesn't have MINI connected, so I thought that stuff went through Bluetooth. Be careful on the iPhone docks for the arm rest. I hear that they often don't work and not sure they have one that fits the larger iPhone 5.

I would probably load my songs on my iPhone as an alternative, but maybe you don't have enough space for that.
