BG, I have it!

I have the transmitter powered by the rear socket. I have run the power lead from the boot, between the seats so it comes out at the rear drop down armrest. Now, connect it to the transmitter, and place it under the central headrest. The headrest will hold the transmitter still and hide it.

I have bought a 6' 3.5mm headphone cable extension (also Belkin) which has one male and one female end. Plug the transmitter plug into the female end of the extension, and run the lead down between the seat back and bench. You might need to tilt the bech up to het the gap you need to feed it through. Now the extension can run under rear mat and up between the front seats, where your MP3 can sit in the drink holder compartment, or wherever you like.

When not in use, the cable is barely visable, but you can hider it under rear seat in about 5 seconds if you wish.

As the transmitter is now less than a foot from rear window, reception is 100%, mine works on 92.6fm everywhere now.

Hope this help you out a bit, and anybody else who wants to try something similar.
