    I, uh, am not a wiring guy but I want to mirror the USB connection that is on my lower dash and have it inside the center console. That way I could plug my old skool iPod in and leave it for years happily listening to my music that I haven't bothered to copy off the iPod onto a flash drive.

    Also, was thinking could put a bigger flash drive in the center console instead.

    Anyone have any thoughts about how to go about doing it?

    Thanks

    I mean, if it were possible to have a second line run to the head unit that would be great, but I am guessing it would not be happy with two in signals....

    Yeah, I think it's just one source for the head unit.
