Great, but very expensive for what you get...

Product works great. Set consists of a specialized pioneer cable, and an HDMI Cable. Considering I still had to buy an apple HDMI to USB converter, and didn't need the specialized cable for my head unit, I could have saved $80.00 by just buying the HDMI cable without the specialized cable. Still works fine, but very pricy for what you actually get. I thought there was something special about this setup, but it's pretty basic, and you still must buy additional parts to actually utilize your iPhone with the system.

Like this cord. It does what its supposed to do. My issue is with how the iPhone 5 HAS TO STAY ON the entire time.
Try turning your screen off = the display cuts off.
I dont want my iPhone 5 screen on for my entire car ride.
Plus the iPod controls dont work.
I eventually traded in my AppRadio 3 for an AVH-4500BT.
Just plug my iPhone 5S lightning usb cable top the back of the radio and all my iPod controls work......even all my music from iCloud (over 100GBs)
I dont really care for video on my radio. I usually use maybe 3-4 music dvd's i burn myself anyway.
Im also NOT a fan of how I had to use the car mix app via the appmode to get my iPod controls to work.......and again, the iPhone screen had to stay on the entire time.

The radio doesn't recognize it as a compatible cable but it still allows you to use it without interruption. Just an annoying message every time you utilize app mode or video & it's used in conjunction with an original Apple lightening cable so I'm not sure what the problem is.

This is a much needed cable to interface with the pioneer app radio.. It allows the radio to mirror the phone as if u were actually using th phone itself

Works great, once the technician understood that this one was for the iPhone 5, and had to remove the one that comes with the AppRadio 2.

It works, it's necessary to connect your iphone to your appradio 3, still have to buy a separate connector from Apple, which is also expensive.

Cannot get the mirroring affect to work! This seems like there needs to be some adapter cable from the phone to HDMI but it was not provided in the box this makes no sense! I wish they would've said what other accessories needed for this function to work
