Hi,

First off i'm sorry if this is in the wrong section but only thing that has motoring on the list, this might even be better off on another site so if anyone can even help suggest that at the least then that will be appreciated.

What i'm wanting to know is if i strip a Apple USB cable down it leaves me 4 colours Pink, Black,White and Green...now can i connect any of these to any wires in my car to make it charge my iphone/ipod ?

I tried a couple of ways but the only thing i got was...

Pink and Black to ciggarette lighter + & - which made my ipod light up but not charge, and made my iphone reboot.

This is all about the cradle i have, the layout i want and the connection to my stereo so me just buying a simple iphone charger for £2 from ebay is not what im trying to achive, plus i'd like to win this challenge :P

Thanks for any opinions.
