Huh cool, if this actually works I would put one in mine. Do you have a part number?

Great find. Does the car recognize USB C audio as aux in?
The part number is 84108711939: https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=84_1275 |

Not gonna lie, that's a pretty insane retrofit for those who can benefit from the usb c capabilities.
I wonder how many watts this hub will output.

I assume, for this, you'd need to find a straight 12v source for power? I believe our USB ports get their 5V power from either the MULF or COMBOX...but, I could be wrong, haven't dove into it yet. The downside to the G series USB C port is losing the AUX input jack...but, I could always just relocate that. |

Since the port is longer I may need to notch the rear hvac tube under the center console. Anyway the Data Type C ports do 500mah and the power only ones do 3amp https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/g...t-2/1VnYhhyDJ2 https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/g...t-2/1VncihVT7d |

I dont currently have a USB port, I wouldnt care about any of the USB functionality since I installed the bluetooth receiver from your old thread.
But if I could pop this in and use it for charging so Im not using the cig outlet Id be interested. Ive never been comfortable leaving those cheap as adapters after one (a branded one from best buy) caught fire in a friends car. Plus if it was 3a it could actually be used to really charge while navigating and whatnot, where 500ma just keeps up. |

I would take power from the phone cradle pre-wiring in that is in at least all US cars. Great thank you |
