    Little dongles are pricey & I’ve got a couple of each end, figured it possible

    You’ll need a solder, wire strippers/cutters

    On the lightning side, you’ll find 6 wires
    RY, GR, & GY can be soldered together for grounding
    Red is right speaker
    Green is left speaker
    Silver or gold is your mic
    (You can cut this out if you don’t need it)

    Followed these 4 wires down to the female 3.5mm
    Marked their posts on the jack
    You can also plug in a male jack to test the rings with a polarity tester to know which is which & wire accordingly

    Soldered each tip to corresponding tabs
    Now the iPhone plugs into my aux I installed using [mention]Vansquish [/mention] how-to

    Two types of females I’ve ran into
    Lots of polarity testing, but fairly easy to figure out.

    I had all the tools so I saved about $20 & the cord is much longer
    The cheaper lightning cables will burn up pretty quick. I used the factory headphones for the lightning & aux extension I had for some selfie stick that I kept for the extendable handle lol

    Doing the life proof dongle next just to sharpen my soldering skills & I’ll take more pics to add of finished product.

    First one I did
    Hope that helps !
