I've got this USB portable hard drive:
http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=261&language=en
It doesn't get enough power from the head unit so I need to connect it to something else to get more power.
I could get this cable:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/LINDY-USB-Cable-Dual-Power/dp/B000FKP7XA
and this http://sewelldirect.com/Zip-Linq-USB-Power-Cigarette-Lighter.asp
But I don't want anything sticking out of the cigarette lighter part. So i was thinking of something like cutting the 1 part of the usb cable off and maybe connecting it to some other place of power but im not sure what to do. Does anyone have any ideas or any other ideas?
Thanks lol might be abit of a mad post but oh well.
