I want to wire this to the center console. Drives me nuts there is not 12V there along with Ipod adapter. Where is the best place to wire this to?

You don't have a cigarette outlet in your ashtray?

The idea is to have one hidden away to use for my cell phone charger. I work in an area where your windows are smashed for 10 cents. A cable, charger or anything else can be seen valuable enough to a crack head to smash the window. Most cars today have them on the center console and everything can be hidden away.

Why not put an outlet in the glove compartment. then you can close it and lock it.
