Default Couple minor interior upgrades

My headunit has a USB input that I use for my droid. Works great. Here is where I mounted the usb jack

Also does anyone know how long it takes roughly to take apart the dash? I would like to run my radar detector power wire up through the dash.




And my ebrake with new boot. I ordered the ebrake handle not realizing how big they actually are. They are HUGE!!! And my ebrake boot is meant for stock size. My grandma made it a little bigger for me so it could fit. Doesn't look as good as I was hoping, not sure what I plan on doing with it in the future but here is a pic

That's pretty cool. The only thing is I go to fast food places a lot, so I know that a plastic McDonald's large cup of iced coke would provide enough condensation so that when I remove the cup from its cupholding container, condensation would drip down into that USB socket and fry it.

Nice job though. Ever thought about moving the iPod controls into the armrest? I did that with mine and I love it. Never looked back.

What do you mean? My current ipod control is actually in the little compartment above the glove box since I have a different headunit. I barely use my ipod since its going bad. If I do anything it will be most likely to remove the ipod and AUX jacks completely from the armrest area.

I meant that the water from lifting a cup would drip into that USB input that you have molded into the center console. Right where the cupholders are. At least in my case, that would be my worry.
