My 07 wagon didn't have a cover for the 12V outlet when I bought it. While rummaging around in a JY I picked up one for the car because I thought that the exposed hole looks pretty crappy. Now, a few months later, I'm seeing why so many MK1.5s in the yards are missing theirs...you take them out to put in a phone charger etc. and there is no good place to put them or a tether that keeps them right there with the outlet.
So my question is if anyone has done anything to address this? Or am I the only one that cares about a hole in their dash? Any success with covers from different cars? I'm thinking about a nylon strap stuck in the cover and attached to the radio bezel. This would let the cover dangle when its not plugging the hole but stay where it is needed; I don't love this idea and would like something a little more "clean" looking though.
