Question Another 100.00 bucks. When does it end. HDPLUS

Installed the HDPLUS Ipod interface. I could have sworn the cable was long enough to install the Ipod in the saddlebags.. Nope.....i was wrong. Rather then spending anoher 100.00 bucks for a kit, has anyone found another way of extending the Ipod cable that comes with the kit? I was thinking there was possibly another cable on the market that is longer and could possibly work with the HDPLUS. Any ideas would again be appreciated.

Did you install the Harley one or the HDPDplus from On the move technologies. I have the HDPDplus and my cable reaches the saddle bag.

They just changed it to a shorter cable and if u want it to reach your saddle bags it'll cost ya another $75, but the price dropped $20, $250 now instead of $270

@Stuart1270...I installed the one from Onthemovetechnologies. The link you provided; would the Ipod cable work as a extension? Saschagast is right. OTM changed the cable length. Why would they do this.

That is exactly what it is an extension cable.

I would guess they shortened the cable forcing you to buy the cable if you wanted to mount it in your saddlebag instead of including it.
