   this isnt another one of those where should i dock my ipod and how will i mould it things..
   i know where its going and how...
   the only problem is.. im not clued up in the electrical stuff.
   basically the phone will be in that compartment under the center console
   i was wondering if there was a way to either use the cig lighter to wire in an ipod charger? so it would be like a proper dock?

   buy an ipod cigarette charger, dismantle the end and wire straight into the cigarette lighter?
   
   easiest way i can see.
