USB in car help

[winchman]

I have bought one of the cheap Chinese car stereos from Flea Bay.
I can't believe how good it its, well once I fathom out how to get some sort of navigation maps on it.
Now it has two USB leads I am wondering can I not mount these in a switch blank?
Any ideas, yes I know it needs a clean

Thanks that's very kind of you, I will keep you posted I was hoping to find a cheaper version of this as I want it to look Factory fit

you could use one of these

but they tend to get dirt in them quick like your floor so be warned prefer them on a slope or front slot in myself

You are right I will have to give it more thought, VW do one but its a specific connection so mine just needs to be ab extension lead with a surface mount socket, lots on Ebay but the wrong size as soon as you add VW to the search the cost rockets!

Any ideas as to how I load navigation maps on it?

Yes but its the wrong size for the cut out, going to the scrappy tomorrow to see if I can find a spare panel to mess with
