$65 Phone Mirroring to Dash and Rear Screens

[nemloc]

can you direct different sources to the different screens? (3 screens in an XL) with the unlock or without?

Hey when you had the console apart you didn't happen to see an unused plug for the phone charger they introduced in Oct 2014? I lot of times options are prewired into harnesses even if not used.

I had mine apart earlier in this thread, but mine is an original 2015, built in like April of '14. Sorry I couldn't help.

So with my 2015i Denali, can I use the apple lightning-->hdmi converter and the hdmi to rca converter...will that get iPad/iPhone content to the rear screens?

Yes - that should work - you may have to cycle through the video icon on the touch screen a few times until it picks up the signal through the rca jack. You will also need to power the hdmi converter through one of the USB ports - and you will want to power the the iPad as well.

It all worked great! I used some split loom to make it look clean. Had to flip the side switch on the adapter then it all worked. Kids will flip! Also bought some low profile rca's to help it clear better

I have about 100 in it with the Lightning adapter for iPad. Thanks to OP!

Hey gang, just wanted to note that my set up no longer seems to be mirroring on iPhone 6 running IOS 9.0.2. All I get is a blue screen (using the same lightning to HDMI adapter to RCA converter approach). Anyone else having this problem?

that's pretty cool!

I cannot sift thru 7 pages... will this work for an iphone?

Update: I think it's my Lightning to HDMI adapter. Even though it's an Apple product, lately it's been launching an alert that says "this accessory may not be supported by this device," which is crazy.

I can't seem to get mine working after splicing into the wiring harness behind the rear center console. I followed the attached wiring diagram and sliced in an iSimple HDMI converter (http://www.amazon.com/iSimple-ISHD01-MediaLinx-Composite-Adapter/dp/B00LUX1F5K). It worked when I tested it connected directly to the RCA inputs but no go after hard wiring it.

Double check your pins... pin 6 (signal) and 12 (comm) for video. 4 (A/R) 5 (A/L) and 11 (comm) for audio..

See this post for clarification:

Has anyone used the isimple Medialinx?

I'm thinking this should work with my chrome cast.

The Isimple cord does not seem to be powered. The converters used in these posts have powered off the USB connection. I don't know that you can convert HDMI to composite without power - perhaps RCA to HDMI will work but that would not solve your issue

I just saw the review of the isimple medialinx on youtube...

I would think chromecast will work but the chromecast will require power thru a USB.

Yep, I saw that as well. I receive the isimple medialinx yesterday. I'll see if I can get around to trying it out this evening.

Just an FYI, the Isimple Medialinx works. Wasn't having luck getting the chromecast to work so I got an HDMI cable from work and plugged in my lightening to HDMI adapter, then plugged my phone into that. Phone mirroring works. Now I can play Netflix for my little girls. Just need to get a short HDMI cable.

Chrome cast doesn't work? I had an issue with it plugging the USB (powering the Chromecast) to OEM USB. The SUV USB ports didn't have enough power. I ended up getting a 2.0 A usb charger and plug it in the cigarette plug. It worked.

Thanks. Didn't even think of that. I think I might have one of those in my wife's car. I'll need to check later when she gets home.

Has anyone tried this with the apple hdmi cord
