E93 USB

smith.james0 · 03-27-2018, 01:33 PM

Hi,

I am in the process of fitting an Alpine headunit, I need two USB ports for my iphone and USB stick. At the moment the car does not have any USB ports so I would like to add the one in the glove box and the one under the arm rest, but the ones I've found on ebay have the connection on them to connect to the OEM headunit. I need a USB plug on the end so it can plug into the headunit.
Can anyone suggest where i might be able to get this type of USB port?

Regards

James

eBay. Amazon. If I'm understanding you correctly, you need to add USB jacks in your car and need them to plug into the USB jacks in your aftermarket head unit?

Search for "flush" or "panel" mount USB.

I've been using this one in a home project for about a year, no complaints https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00VA...mJL&ref=plSrch
