I want to install a 12v power supply in my glove box, has anyone done this?
I was thinking of using something like this...

But I note that the CONNECTING WIRE is 60cm long, how much wire do you think I'll need to reach from the back of the glove box to the car battery?

Re: 12v power supply in glove box
That will do the job.
I would take a power feed from the fusebox, probably the one under the bonnet.
I would earth it on one of the bolts that hold the fusebox down.
However be careful taking the power from here as it will be constantly live so any device left switched on when the car isn't in use will flatten your battery.
