Default 2 usb cable

Some guys on here put another USB port in the dash. I found where the USB plugs in, buy I can't find where they bought them. I tried radio shack, best buy, and a computer place or two, even ford, no luck. Thanks for any help.

Sorry, I do my stuff from my iPhone. And I just noticed I put this in the wrong place. I hope all of you can forgive me.

That's your problem there. Because I pity you(for buying into a fashion icon instead of function) and apparently icracks can not use the search function I will help you out.

Got mine at CableWholesale.com, $1.83 for a three-foot cable and $0.80 for a USB female-to-female adapter. Easy and quick. Works great.

Thank the both of you. Sorry I'll pay more attention next time I have a question. I tried calling some local places, with no luck. It never crossed my mind to search. Sorry.

Amazon is another good place to look. OR if you have an old mini usb charger/data cord for a cell phone that'll work too. I used one from a blackberry that I used to have. No need to be sorry!

No apologies needed. The simplest things, like finding an appropriate USB cable, can be frustrating. That's what the forum is for. Let others experience work for you.

I did the exact same thing. Couldn't find anything else close to the USB connection I needed at any local outlets (Radio Shack, etc.). Cable Wholesale was cheap, had HUGE selection on-hand, and shipped fast.

Fashion instead of function when referring to an IPhone? That's funny.
