Aux/iPhone Wire for OEM 2nd Gen Stereo

i have an 08 and need a new wire for the oem radio so I can stream music from my iPhone. I’ve been through 2 chinese built ones and they do not last long. I’d like something that can provide better sound quality & will last longer. Can anyone give me some suggestions?

 

For durability, I’ve found the iCables from Apple last the longest.

 

Are you referring to the Apple lightning cables etc?

I’m looking for something like this:


Something that connects directly to the 2nd Gen OEM Stereo. I just want a better quality cable than this one as the headphone jack wears out quickly etc

 

Not sure. On my ‘06, there was no USB input. I haven’t seen the newer models, but yours was the first screen headunit. I think there was an AUX port below the climate controls.

 

I do not have a screen headunit or AUX below the climate controls.

 

Yeah, I just noticed ‘08, not ‘09, sorry. When I first tried something on my ‘06, USASPEC was the goto for iPod adapters. They’ve updated to Bluetooth with what I think is a USB oort as well.
