Apple Interface Cable USB H Adapter: Lightning
Apple Interface Cable USB H Adapter: Lightning
I bought this cable for my 2011 S Convertible. Plugged it all in - nothing. The USB indicator on the stereo says it's not the correct USB device. So, I took a DOS formatted USB drive, put music on it, put it in the USB hole and viola - music. I could see the song titles, etc. just like the book says. Being the geek I am, I reformatted the same USB disk to MAC OS Extended, added music and nothing. Car does not recognize the USB. After searching through Mini forums, I have come to the conclusion that the car will only play a DOS formatted USB disk - which the iPhone is NOT. I would like to hear if anyone is having success with this cable/iPhone combo...

I have ordered a few parts from these guys over the past years, and always had an successful business with them. I live in Iceland and have to pay a few extra bucks for the shipping, so Aaron sends me email right away about it. I take care of it and receive the product a few days later.

Received my headlight rings and start button covers in record time. Which was awesome. A suggestion would be to send instructions with the products. Otherwise experience was awesome.

Synopsis: R series explored
Much like the R56 to R50/R53, the Gen 2 MINI Cooper Convertibles R57/R57 S are a re-vamp of the original R52 and R52 S Convertibles.

R57
R57 S

Again MINI released the Cooper and Cooper S versions of the Convertible under the same R series designations - R57 and R57 S. The 2nd Gen MINI Cooper and Cooper S Convertibles maintain a few Gen 1 features, including two doors, a rear trunk, and front and rear seats. A device, marketed as the "Openometer", was designed to record the number of minutes the vehicle has operated with its roof retracted. Available variants and corresponding powertrain selections are the same as in the MINI Hatchback range.
