Customer Summary A Tad Long for Auto Use
Customer Full Review There is no need to get the Belkin iPhone audio adapter if you get this cable - it is already iPhone ready. I have a car that has an audio input jack for .mp3 players, including iPod. With this cable, I have no problem and need no adapter to hear the music on my iPhone, and when I get an incoming call, the music dims to silence and I can answer via my bluetooth headset or just pick up the phone.
While it might make sense for home stereo use, who needs 6 feet of this cable for use in your car? There is so much extra cable, it's silly. I have a 'panic bar' above the glove box, so I have wound the extra length of cable here... to keep it from hanging low where a passenger could accidentally yank it w/ their foot, potentially damaging the audio jack, cable or the iPhone itself.
I suppose the length of cable is supposed to make you feel better for having spent this much on a cable. The ends are nice quality and pretty sturdy and the thick cable is nicely insulated, less likely to have interference from crimping.
My less than perfect rating is that there should be an option for shorter lengths - or at least it should come with a winding system.
