    Default Direct Wire Smart Plug length

    Question...is the direct wire smart plug long enough to allow mounting above the rearview in a regular size car (VW Jetta)? Thanks for the info!

    yea its pretty long. if not, you can always extend the wires yourself on the non-telephone jack end.

    ^ Agreed to both counts.

    Self-extension is quite simple, but yes, on the Jetta, you shouldn't have a problem.

    My Legacy should be of comparable interior volume, and I had my x50's direct-wire SmartCord routed from the interior RVM, trailed left along the headliner and A-pillar trim, coming into the base of the dash, and then wired into the central dash column's cig. lighter wires.

    I used a 6' telephone cord and a coupler to extend the wire to the RD. Works fine
