Good timing this discussion. Since I got my new iPhone 7 I've been looking for a simple way to listen to Apple Music and charge my phone at the same time. I don't have the iPod interface cable fitted and my UConnect is down the back, and all of the official interface cables I keep seeing seem either too short or may not work with my model.
After some searching online it seems that the connection on the UConnect module is a mini USB with a custom outer clip, and some have rigged up a suitable setup using bog standard USB cables and adapters.
So last night I ordered a mini USB to female adapter and a 5 metre extension cable. I'll let you know how I go.
