    If you have a spring loaded mounting, such as a cradle, it won't work. On the other hand, if your phone sits freely on the console with a wire connecting it to the car audio system, it will work. The "30 pin to Thunderbolt" connector works fine on the iPhone 5S; the problem is keeping the 30 pin end connected to any device with spring loading that tends to push it out.

    An analogy is placing batteries in a remote control (held by spring loading) versus plugging a toaster cord into a wall outlet (held by friction).

    My 4S clicks snugly into place in the the custom cradle; the 5S requires a new cradle.
