I-phone connection for 2012 Vaqureo

[spanky57]

Anybody know how to connect a i-phone to the radio system on the Vaqureo ? I know it has wires in the left glove box, but they are suppose to be for a i-pod. Any input or output would be helpful. Thanks Spanky..

you need one of these. http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-OEM-Kawasaki-Vulcan-Vaquero-Voyager-1700-iPod-Audio-Kit-K10400-040-09-14-/181279351227?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make%3AKawasaki%7CModel%3AVulcan&hash=item2a351761bb&vxp=mtr

And if you have an iphone 5, you need a lightning adapter - recommend the one with the 8" lead . . .

Please tell me what the adapter for the iPhone 5 looks like? Thx

But the one you want looks like this:

The lead cord makes it MUCH easier to hook up the Iphone . . .

Yes. The iPod adapter cord used in conjunction with the piece of foam that comes with it greatly decreases the length of the cord. Lol. It's like trying to pick up a kids you from behind the bed with a butter knife. Lol.

Thanks You guys for the info.I priced the Kawie adapter kit on amazon($93.89) & the 8to 30 pin adapter around $9.00.

So between the foam pieces and the cable adaptor, the iphone 5 does fit in the compartment?

[spanky57]

According to the other threads, no. I guess just the i-phone & cable adapter.

Yes - I trimmed my foamy so my i-phone 5 fits in while in its holster . . . Its nice and snug and doesn't get all shook up . . .

will an I-phone 5 interface with the radio controls? I went to order the I-pod cable and it says it wont support an I-phone. does it work?

[c_law23]

It definitely should, you just need a 30 pin to lightning adapter as mentioned in post #7 in addition to the ipod cable from kawasaki.

I have the iPhone 4S and it works just like an iPod with the controls. Even pandora and other music apps display song information on the voyager radio display.

Which half of foam are y'all cutting off? Got my apple cord (yes a bit more spendy) and Kawi cord. Just figuring I cut the top half of the foam away. Yes?

[timmer357]

Top half it is
