Jaguar / Landrover Cupholder
Dock for iPhone with
Lightning connector
I have produced all the parts required by 3D printing to hold the Apple Lightening plug in the corect position and enable the iPhone to connect to the cable. The kit includes all the fixing materials and support blocks, all you will need is a drill, either Ø 9mm or Ø 3/8" to make a hole in the bottom of the cupholder. The kit contains a drill guide so the hole is in the correct position to make the perfect result.
Suitable iPhones:-
If your iPhone fits into the support guides in the cupholder, then this dock kit should work. It has been designed to accommadate iPhones that are in a case, so if the phone and case can be slotted into cupholder this will work.
Note:- The blocks have been specifically designed to securely fit the Apple cable supplied with the phone, if you intend using a clone version you may need to file the blocks slightly. Please contact me if you need advice or help, using the email link below.
