The adapter is very large for a car adapter and the cable exits upward the adapter. Located Zealand's cigarette a few centimeters in front of the gear shift (eg the Audi A3 Sportback Bj. 2010), so you will come across every time you load the even gears against the unit. This can interfere with driving. Furthermore, the device is very loose in the holder. A slightly beherzigter shock enough and the device will no longer load. For my phone I have I car adapter from Sony (another interface, so I could not use this for the MP3 player). This is for a smaller, the cable exits the adapter side and he is firmly installed in the cigarette lighter. So there are manufacturers that provide far better quality. I have now also discovered by a Sony car adapter to mini USB at Amazon. Conclusion: For owners whose lever is far enough away from the cigarette lighter like the unit to be good, because it loads properly (hence two stars). Whether the adapter will still be so relaxed sitting in the holder remains questionable for me.
