iPhone connection to handle bar mount?

[Spider-man]

Hi. I want to mount my phone on an X mount on my handlebars but run the connection to the dongle in the glove box. How have others done this? Drill a hole? Just run it out the top and not close the glove box all the way? Ideas?

Thanks

RT iPhone cord

I have an RT-s , a little different then F3. I ran a high quality lightning cable from my trunk, under seat, right up the seam of the glovebox then to my ram mount . I was told on here when I was planning, that he glove box on Rt gets to warm. It has worked well for me, make sure the cable is a good one you know how finicky iPhones are about their charging cable ....
good luck :spyder2::spyder2:

My Lightning cable

Hi,

I did something similar on my side.

I removed the front clip around the electronic screen by popping it out and then you can remove the electronic console with just a few clips.

After that, you can have access to the rubber boots where the actual cable are getting inside the glove box.

I made me some space in there and passed my lightning cable in the same hole and then under the electronic console all the way to my X-grip ram mount.

not that much of work

By the way, you don't have to remove that much of tupperware to pass the cable.

That first picture was taken when I installed my heated grips. For that one, you have to remove a bunch of things to get where you have to.

usb

[I was looking at you pictures and was wandering if the usb cable goes to the instrument panel or all the way back to
radio head unit under the rear panel . Mine has stared acting up and it says no device on the dash but the phone says it is charging.
So I use an aux audio cable and put the radio on aux. I just can't advance the songs.
I'll wait till winter to take it to the dealer, no telling how long they'll keep it.

Glove box USB connection

I ran my cable behind the instrument panel and into the glove box. I plugged it on the USB connection inside the glove box.

Maybe it's possible to ran the cable directly to the radio head unit but I haven't gone thet route.

If you have something weird with your phone, maybe try to change your cable. Sometimes, with my iphone, a lightning cable works with one device but not with another. Replacing it just solve the problem. Those lightning cable are very strange...

cables

When it acted up I tried 3 different cables and 2 different devices. My I-phone I usually listen to Spotify
dash says no device and when I tried my Android tablet the dash says no data.
So I was wandering where the USB dongle cable went to. Dash or radio?
