Update:
Just received my XCarlink in this minute. The lead which connects the device to the HU is about 1 metre long, so it is easily long enough to stretch into the glove compartment.
I'm away to fit it, wish me luck

I might be wrong, but my understanding of it is that the USB cable is from the xcarlink to your media device. Is that correct?
Good point, sorry wasn't thinking properly - although the worst case would be to leave the unit behind the headunit (there is room to the side) and run a USB cable to the glovebox, although this would block access to the SD slot
That's what I was thinking. I'd like the unit in the glovebox so I could get access to the SD slot if needed. It's no big deal if it doesn't stretch, though, as long as it fits snugly beside the HU, that will be fine.
It should be here tomorrow so I guess it will just be trial and error until I find the best location for it.

The grom cable isn't long enough to reach the glovebox, but not sure about the xcarlink one.
However if it's USB, could you just get an extension cable?

Hi Folks. First post, great forum.
I'm waiting on an XCarlink usb device being delivered. I was wondering if anyone knew what length the 'head unit to xcarlink cable' is?
Would it be long enough to stretch from the back of the HU to the glove box? If not, is there space behind the HU to fit it there? I've read the excellent guide on post 1, but this was the only thing that didn't appear clear to me.
Thanks in advance.

Bloody typical! They've sent out the wrong type of connector!
