Those things are handy. I used them when I installed my Sirius and gauges in my other truck. I have a bunch but can never seem to find them when I need them.
That they are. My first truck I put in a Volkswagen cd player and 3 extra Volkswagen cigarette lighters with those things. Not for lighting cigarettes, but to have clean looking powerpoints, rather than those cheap looking Canadian Tire splitters. (They lit up green to guide the user in the dark.)
I used to drive 2 buddies around, we usually had more than one type of gadget plugged in.
Some other VW parts I had in my 77 F100: Passat cup holders.

Two things I hate. Wires hanging all over the place and drilling holes.

Or did you mean the VW parts in my F100? Those were cool too.
I don't have a aux input in the front. All my inputs are in the rear. I wired one of those lighter/powerpoint plugs in behind the dash for my sirius. I have the connection for my 5th wheel backup camera wired into it as well. My truck has two powerpoint thingies and neither has anything in it.
I need a cup holder for my 75 maybe I should look into
VW parts.

Well, you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. Drill holes or hang wires.
I don't know how many used vehicles I have bought that had extra holes drilled in the firewall for what ever. Now a days most vehicles will have dead ended wires going through the firewall.
Oh I thought of one other thing that drives me crazy. People that install after market stereos and chop wires instead of buying the correct plug.
