iPhone 5S MDI cable part number

[orcades]

Hello All,

Probably the answer is somewhere, but I've searched. Can anybody point me in the direction of the iPhone 5S MDI Red Collar part number, or post it in reply here.

Thanks,

I believe part number not been released yet or something along those lines, collected my car last week and dealer  told me Iphone 5 lead, called VWUK and they advised iphone 5 lead not released yet!!!

Thanks MajorKhan,

I collected my car 12/12/2013 and it had an iPhone 4 lead with red collar. However I've just changed to an iPhone 5S. I generally use an SD card if being honest, would be handy to have the MDI cable though.

Cheers

The new lead with the Lightning connector (not 30-pin connector for earlier iPhones) seems to be part number:
5N0035554F.
This link shows one sold on eBay:

I believe this cable should allow album artwork to display on the screen.

Collected my GTI on Monday 30th December (2013), and the factory provided me with one, the old cable was installed, however the new lightening cable was in the glove box waiting.

Just for reference:-

iPhone4/4S £36.00 (000051446C) - Blue collar (the part no. might be wrong for this as there are loads of different ones out there)
iPhone4/4S £36.00 (000051446M) - Red collar
iPhone5/5S £70.00 (5N0035554F) - Green collar


All cars produced after BW45 should come with the iPhone5 cable but some (mine included) did not due to shortages 
Perhaps this is why Volkswagen UK are saying they have not been released yet, even my dealership said the same and the guys there are really trustworthy with me.
I think its due to high demand of the iPhone5 cable thats caused stocks to run out, there are a few on eBay so I am sure these will fetch good money, I estimate they will sell for £40 upwards considering they are £70 for the dealership.

Is there anyone who's had a BW45 and up car delivered that has got the lighting cable fitted?
AND - If a BW45 or up car is delivered with the old iPhone cable is fitted, should you expect the dealer to provide you with a lighting cable? Or is Ni1991 just lucky?
Thanks

I've searched for the iPhone 5 lead, found one or two, but postage to UK made them very expensive. Perhaps somebody else has found the iPhone 5 MDI lead at a more reasonable price.

The only one's I've so far are on eBay. Not sure what the bidding will go up to though

My dealer's getting me one, and he'd expecting a delivery "in the next couple of days", so presumably they're beginning to trickle through.
