I would like to ask a question. So if I would like to do the same thing, do I even need a cigar plug or would 2 usb's be good enough. How do you get 2 cigar plugs and 2 usb's in that cubby. Do you have any pictures.
The only reason to go with a cigarette lighter socket is if you have a device to connect that has that type of plug. Of course, there are dual USB adaptors that plug into a cigarette lighter socket so you can go that way. Otherwise, if all you're doing is plugging in devices with USB connectors, you could just wire in a USB socket and forego the cigarette plug altogether.
So, for a cigarette lighter plug, you could consider one like this:

OTOH, if you want to go directly to a couple of USB ports, you could add something like this:

Finally, you can always install the cigarette lighter plug and then, just plug a low-profile USB connector into that like this:

Hope that helps!

Thanks Ken, I will use Wing Stuff and Amazon for the parts, but do you know if they make a Y connector to install 1 cigar outlet and 1 -2 usb connector permently in the cubby.
I'm not aware of a Y-harness like that but that's not to say there isn't one somewhere. What I would do, since I love to solder things, is to install both plugs and then, just solder the leads in parallel. In other words, that would be like making your own Y-harness. It would be quite easy to do that.

I bought a bluetooth transmitter and made an adapter for the 5 pin din plug to a 4-pole 3.5mm plug this plugs into the bluetooth transmitter. I just pair my bluetooth earbuds to the transmitter and viola the radio plays through, I also pair my phone Samsung S5 to the earbuds in case I get a call or want to stream the music through my phone. I also bought a bluetooth helper remote which pairs to the phone and allows me to change songs and volume pause whatever. I mounted the remote helper to the left controls with velcro and put the transmitter in the left pocket, All are rechargeable and will last 12 hours. 20$ for the bluetooth receiver for the earbuds, $40 for the bluetooth transmitter and I already had the parts for the adapter. My wife pairs her phone to the transmitter also so she can listen also. We use an app called intercom and it has a push to talk feature and it overrides the music playing. Not a great setup but it works pretty good. So in total I have about $70 altogether.
