Pentru cei curioși, cablul acela pentru ipod de la kia care face să meargă ipod-ul cum trebuie (modelele 2009+) costă la KIA ROMAUTO la data scrierii acestui mesaj 112,9 euro fără TVA.
Codul producătorului este 08620-2L000, detaliile sunt mai jos și teoretic poate fi comandat de pe saitul ăsta:
http://www.kiaaccessorystore.com/kia_ipod_cable.html cu minim $73.60 ($36.10 cablul, $37.50 transportul).
Fiindcă costul transportului e destul de mare, ar fi interesant să ne cuplăm mai mulți, dar asta doar dacă am găsi pe cineva în România care are cablul acela primit cu mașina și să vedem cum merge mai exact. Sunt informații și pe forumurile în engleză, printre care ei spun că se văd melodiile pe ecranul mașinii, merg butoanele de pe volan și ipod-ul încă poate fi controlat (deci nu e în mod memorie usb).
Mai e o problemă cu vama, nu știu exact dacă la preț sub 100$ trebuie plătit ceva. Magazinul pare să fie în SUA.
