You can create any number of USBs using something like this and plugging it into the back of your factory unit:

I haven't seen the back of the unit but I expect to find at least a mcroUSB socket. Maybe someone here has taken the unit out or has diagrams for it to make sure. Once you know the type of connector required, you can use a USB cable (and hub if you want more than one socket) and mount your sockets wherever you want, such as between the cigarette lighters. :victory:

It appears that usb & aux are individually wired to multi connectors. So it's possible, but not plug & play.   :(

Thanks, Phil. Great info. If it's a 'multi' connector then the plug may already be there waiting for some wire additions. If not, the right connector needs to be sourced. Anybody have a 3D printer? :snigger:

I'd put money on the fact that it's already wired up but not connected, due to no console.  :idea:

These armrests are available in the UK, don't know if they will post to Croatia, however at least you know they are available!

I have been in the same situation with you man.
It took me one year by pressing and pressing again and again the dealer for the original parts,asking all the i30 clubs on the internet but with not luck at all.After all, dealer managed to please me,anyway.
You can install the factory armrest as I did!In the picture below you can see what you have to order from your dealer.Actually you need 4 parts,I can give the parts numbers too if you are interested.

As for the stereo this is a picture of the back of the original stereo :link: View image: photo46 zps38ce8a42

So I suppose with the correct harness you might have the USB port,probably it may be allready there but not connected to the interface on your panel.I mean that it might be missing only the USB interface ...
