More On The Car

So, as I previously mentioned, we are now the proud owners of a car, and John very kindly took a couple of shots so we could tell what it looked like exactly.

I still have to figure out how I want to mount my TyTn II for GPS and music purposts, and what sort of audio connection to try and setup. The car still has the original Ford 5000 RDS EON tape unit installed, so I need to figure out whether a simple Extended USB > 3.5mm > Tape adaptor will work without overflowing wires everywhere, if I can hardwire in a lead to the existing CD Changer interface on the back of the tape unit, try and setup a bluetooth based system, or whether a short range FM broadcasting adaptor would work well. Any recommendations from readers? I need to remember that I’ll probably need two cigarette lighter sockets, one for charging the phone (using GPS sucks the batteries quite quickly), and one for the audio adaptor I use (in some cases).

    When buying Cellphone Batteries make sure that you are not getting those chinese fakes and knockoffs.,.`

    Courtney. That is true, with some disreputable dealers simply placing a new sticker on top of a battery, claiming a higher mAh capacity than is true.

    btw, in terms of finding posts to promote your site (removed the URL obviously), you might want to make sure the match is a little closer.
