I just use the Audi iPhone 5 cradle - it attaches straight to my standard Audi Bluetooth car kit - works like a dream giving perfect hands free and recharge. Paid about £80 for it I think

Once you have the bluetooth retrofited I'd strongly recommend you don't get the cradle. The plastic cradle adapters aren't great quality and are slow to be released and when you get a new phone you'll be waiting forever for an overprived plastic adapter to slot it in.

Get a Nokia cradle and stick it onto the side of the centre console (so it's at the passenger's knee). Nokia makes some really god phone peripherals these days for all phones. I got this one but there should be cheaper ones that aren't wireless charging. You'll notice there is a hole in the bottom holder that fits a micro USB or Apple cable: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00GP20Q42
