2004 SL500 - Power in glove box
Hi Folks,
I'm using an MP3 player to play music through the aux connector in the glove box of my 2004 SL500. I would like to leave the player in the glove box and have it charge when in use, but there's no power outlet in the glove box.
Has anyone added a power socket in the glove box? Any thoughts on difficulty and placement?
Thanks
Gary

I added a 12V power outlet to my glove box in my 2003 SL55, using the cig lighter for power.
My ash tray interior had been converted into a satellite radio, so there was no power outlet to use there, and we all need outlets for cell phones and gadgets.
Works great!
