This cradle support upgrade gives stable support for the Apple 30-pin to Lightning Adaptor and your docked Apple Device. Until now, to use an Apple lighting device with a dock with the 30-pin dock connector,  you needed the Apple Lightning adaptor. This gives a highly unstable and unsightly stack that has no support for the connector in your Apple device or for your dock's 30-pin connector. 

It takes seconds remove the existing dock insert adaptor and snap the lighting adaptor and the new support into place.  The look of the dock is transformed and the connectors are now supported, protecting your devices and your investment. The cradle support is FULLY compatible with the genuine Apple Lighting to 30-Pin Adaptor (not supplied).

This upgrade is compatible with most brands of dock with the 30-pin connector that use the standard Apple insert. (See pictures) 

Compatible with iPhone5, iPhone 5S,iPhone 5C, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPod Touch 5th Gen, iPod Touch 6th Gen, iPod Nano 7th Gen.

More information:
Nearly all  iPod docks with the legacy connector have a removable plastic insert that adapts the dock for different models of iPods and iPhones. The design of the dock is specified by Apple to enable all third-party dock manufacturers to accommodate the adaptors supplied by Apple. When Apple launched a new device you simply bought the new insert from the Apple store and snapped it into your dock. This compatibility was lost when the Lightning connector became the standard interface.
