Added USB Charger Socket to Dome

Recently installed this (see photo) USB Charger Socket between the upper windshield and dome light. The socket is wired into the dome light so that it is always hot. Really easy install and great location for powering your dash camera and GPS unit. Also works well for charging phones, but I plan to soon add another one to dash for that purpose. You can order the socket from Amazon, it's called: "Highest Power Dual True 4.2 Amp USB Charger Socket," cost is about $13.00 plus shipping.

Nice.

I added a hard wire adapter for the Garmin and a plug for the camper backup camera screen (3d printed a mount to hang it on the mirror). They're wired to ignition, since the GPS drained my dual batteries in a couple days! It's nice not having wires hanging all over.
