I was thinking about making some sort of a velcrow mount. It's going to be a permenant install, and window mounts are ugly IMO... Oh, the Valentine will be here soon. The drive this weekend showed me how much I need one.

Oh, do either of you know what is involved in hardwiring something? I.e. splicing the wires from a cigarette lighter power adaptor into the car's wiring?

I was going to run them to the cigarette lighter wiring anyways. I figure that has a big enough power supply and it is close to where I need it. I'm going to need to power an iPod, Palm, gps, cell phone, and a bunch of gauges which i'm going to be putting in soon...

Bad experience? Like with tequila? I have only good memories with scotch. I drank it for 2 weeks straight in europe. Tequila is another story for me. It almost always ends up with something funny. Stil a great drink IMO.
