Hey all!

I just bought my first Acura, the 08 MDX w/ Tech package. I'm super excited to finally have it! I have a few questions about how I can modify it to get my iPhone 5 integrated with it.

I got the HFL hooked up to it, but I cannot seem to get Siri working through it very well. It always goes through the iPhone speaker or through the "headphone" jack out (AUX input). When I use Siri to make a call (much easier than using HFL and address book that won't sync), sometimes it goes through the HFL and sometimes not. It's frustrating, but I understand it's a limitation.

One thing that I'd like to get is true iPhone/iPod integration. I've spent some time reaserching the USA Spec PA15-ACUxl and it seems to be the answer. It allows me to use the iPhone iPod through the stock radio, and hopefully it still allows me to use Siri. Can anyone confirm?

I noticed the PA15-ACUxl has an iPod 30 pin connector, which won't work with my iPhone 5. Do they have a cable that has a female USB connector on it instead so I can use my iPhone 5 with lightning cable? If not, are there other and better options?

To recap, I'd love to have the following working:

• Siri and handfree phone through the car bluetooth HFL
• iPhone/Ipod integration through the display, connected via the USB so it can get song data and charge the phone

Thanks for your help and advice! Happy Holidays!

Press he Siri button twice. The first time, it'll go the bluetooth, and he second time it'll work like it should.

So it looks like two options are the Dice Audiovoxx Mediabridge or the USA SPEC PA15-ACUxl (although I think they're coming out with a new version that's Bluetooth and iPHone 5 compatible).

Anyone have any experience with these?
