    They were available for a while but you will have a job to find one now though, you will have to make one up yourself I am afraid. A guy, knap92, from another forum made one and the here are the pictures so credit to him

                Bluetooth???

                Are you sure that's the right cable?

                Does it look like the cable in mahrkpat's links?
