Ok again I am interested in knowing why do I want the USB cable to go to my glove box? What is the plus at having my Ipod there?I want to make sure I am not missing something good by having it in the glove box.
Ride it like you stole it
LOL! You are not missing anything, and there is nothing wrong with leaving it in the saddlebags. I guess it comes down to personal preference. I would like my iPhone fully accessible, and since I use it for music, I would like to have it available in a pinch, so for me, it would be a pain to have to go into my saddlebags each time I pull over to stop for gas, lunch, or into a store or home.
If I were to use my ipod, or MP3 player, I would have to open the saddlebags and turn it off everytime I was going to be away from the bike for extended periods.
Most of the time, I stuff the hell out of those bags on a trip, and I don't want to worry about pulling on the ipod cord, or knocking it with a helmet or boot. JMHO
I ran a USB cable from my right handle bar to the cubby for power to my iphone…. I then blue tooth the phone to my helmet or a blue tooth device into my ears…

Ok thanks.You are using your phone for music
I apologize if this is a stupid question as I couldn't find the answer on a thread, but does the USB cable in the left pannier charge the iPod as well? I am considering picking up a cheap one to use for this if the controls and display are enhanced. Thanks in advance.

Yes...... also pick up some two sided tape and tape the unit to the top of the bag out of the way ......
