Jaguar / Landrover Cupholder
Dock for an iPhone with USB-C connector
I have produced all the parts required by 3D printing to hold the Apple iPhone USB-C 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 11mm or Ø 7/16" 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 and has a USB-C connector, then this dock kit should work. It has been designed to accommadate phones 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.
