I've just taken delivery of my 2013 E89 and have lots of questions :-)

I can't find any info on whether the phone cradle is usable with new phones - can I buy a cradle that fits into it to charge my iPhone 12 ?

Welcome to this fine forum. :) Alas I can't help with the phone question.

You might want to post a picture of your Z4 up quick, before more pic police arrive. :wink:

    Hi And welcome to the forum :) Great colour choice 8) Anything other than a USB in a car baffles me, I would use the USB to charge your phone

    Welcome once more, nice looking Zed you have, one of my favourite colours. As others have said easiest way is just to use a short usb cable to charge your phone.

    Someone with more knowledge may know for sure but I think I heard a figure of around £160 for the correct adapter for each phone.
    You may not be able to get the adapter for your phone anyway as your phone is newer than the car.
