A little tip for Canadian guys...
Amazon.com won't ship this item to us and Amazon.ca wants $22.92 for it.
We can order it (or pick up in store) from Tigerdirect.ca for $16.99. Canadacomputers has them in most stores for $19.99

Cheers

I really like that USB!! I have a much larger Belkin unit that I keep in the center console to charge my iPod while its connected to the AV jacks in there. I never use the lighter, so it would be nice to have the USB option there.

Side note: I tried to charge my phone in the cigarette spot while I had the other charger hooked up and it didn't work. It works fine when the other charger isn't connected. Can we only use one or the other at a time or is something up with my lady?? I have an 07x sedan

They should both work. I usually have one plugged into my phone and the other plugged into my Garmin. Maybe something went out on yours

Yeah it didn't seem right that they wouldn't work simultaneously. Not really a problem, but annoying to know something is wrong there. I just dont get why it would work part-time though... guess I'll have the dealer look at it if I take her in for any other work. I also need to double check and make sure I'm not just a tard and didn't have it pushed all the way in or something

I was actually at Walgreens earlier when I got an e-mail notification for this thread.

I snapped that with my iPhone so it's kinda crappy. $10 with a lifetime warranty

Section 8 of the owners manual has the info on fuse box location. I snapped a couple quick pics for you. The schematic table on the back the the panel cover indicates what each fuse is for.

Awesome, thanks! Didnt know where my manual was and had no idea it was there, and glad there are spares there as well.

Do they have one without the cable included. Don't need the cable which adds to the cost

i've had this since i've owned the car, but in the center console so I don't have wires hanging out. I use this one from griffin with two USB ports. It closes in the ashtray just fine...

Pair it with the Apple Original AV Cable and you have an ipod cable that charges your phone and replicates your iphone/ipad screen onto the nav screen...

I find myself using the TomTom app on my iphone with video out to the nav rather than factory nav.
