it probably wont be a good idea for u to get power to all those from the cigarette lighter. i dont know much about this, but i blv the power wire for the cigarette lighter is not too fat, and so it probably wont be able to handle the power inverter alone. why dont u just get a connection straight from the battery? as for ur flip down and fm modulator, im in a similar situation right now. i plan on using a relay off the remote lead wire with the constant 12V coming from a 12-gauge at the battery. that might be something u wanna consider doing. just my 2 cents...

Thanks for the reply.

After thinking about this for a couple of days and doing some research, I agree with you.

I bought a couple of "Add a circut" Adaptors that plug right into your fuse box...I'll give these a try.
