Hi all,
After much searching and asking I cannot find a dock that utilises Fiat's and Alfa's built in TomTom dock in the dashboard.
Now I've done some work on designing a dock that would work with the iPhone 3G, 3GS, 4 and 4S. It would charge (5V 1A) without any cables trailing everywhere and would function as a holder in both landscape and portrait modes. I'm an electronic & electrical engineering student so it's pretty straight foward.
I have looked at getting this manafactured but it won't be cheap and I'll need to sell some significant quantities (over 500) to break even. Looking at around £50/unit, but they will be well made, I can try and get a deal for fellow Fiat Forum users.
This is not some random on the forum flogging crap you can find on ebay, I'm here trying to proactively fill a hole for us Fiat and Alfa owners.
So if you are interested please let me know ASAP and spread the word as I can't be the only one who, every time gets in their car is frustrated at the lack of a native dock? Especially with iOS 6 maps here.
Yours
