I'm not using a cig outlet, I am doing a custom audio install and the head unit has a single USB connector that is used to either an MP3 player, or something like a thumb drive. I plan on installing a USB port and an SD card reader into the dash. I have found no issues with a simple USB 2.0 card reader, but I have found that the Pioneer head unit cannot power a USB hard drive.
I think I will look for a 12v to 5v power adapter and wire things in that way. I was just hoping for an off the shelf unit.
