should not be a problem. If it feels a bit "loose", there are plastic sleeves that were made for radar detectors that would help "fill the gap" so you don't get the "wobblies".

12v in 1978 is still 12v in 2011 you will be fins to plug anything into it that you would in any other car.

This will definitely help with my droid's lousy battery life.
Thanks!

I added a Auto Zone charging port under the dash. Tight fit on US style plugs and runs direct to the battery. Constant 12v power.
