Looks like they may have stopped the cables (probably due to anything post 2004 being the adapater). Carly website though has a full kit which looks like it contains every type of lead

The cable works on all e85/6 regardless of production date.

Why do you think it's for an iPhone?
I think any cable that matches a description of (say) 'Ediabas INPA OBDII Diagnostic BMW Interface Cable' should work.
The cable I bought for INPA/NCS works perfectly for Carly on my Samsung tablet (using a standard micro USB to USB OTG adapter).
Or did I misunderstand the OP's request?

I had a generic lead which I was using with Inpa but it wouldn’t talk to Carly probably. Where I think it gets a bit confusing is that the Carly site used to say it must be the lead rather than wireless for the e85/86 but HAS to be wirless for E89?? It now seems to say the iphone wifi adapter is for all cars from 1996!

I've got a spare cable - brand new in packet complete with USB to micro USB so you can plug your phone/tablet into the car with the app...

Sorry I was thinking of the newer adaptors that work with the carly app

Thanks I have bought a lead from BCables and will try that.
If not I might take that cable off your hands.

I use a cheap OBDII cable and USB to micro adapter with Carly on my e89.
It seems to do everything except code iNav (I get a message about needing an official adapter).
