Oh, iPhone, the things I do for you
A bench clamp, a hacksaw and a 3.5 mm audio cable combined with a taste for adventure, delivered me my brand new iPhone certified cable!
Now my iPhone can enjoy the spendorous accoustics of my Daewoo Lanos, as I cruise the badass streets.
I think the cable has poignant beauty to rival the iPhone itself.
But seriously, seeing the amount of redundant excess plastic on something like this really does make you appreciate the minimalism of Apple design. We’ve all seen a lot fatter 3.5 mm adapters than this one, too!

Whoa, shit! That’s some excellent/good old fashioned modding there!
Though i can’t believe you can live with the non-shininess of that slightly imperfect cable!!.. haha…

I look at it more as a testament to my efforts than 100% ugliness.
What is a little frustrating is that probably only one 1 mm actually needed to be shaved off in order for it to fit. Oh well!

Hey dude, is that a bare wire i can see sticking out on the side there?!? Not that you’ll exactly get an electric shock or anything…

Yes, yes it is.
I actually got fits of giggles when I finally stepped back to admire my handywork. But hey!
It sounds like butter.
