Nice work.... Links to the specific magsafe adapter and DC-DC converter you used?
I've tried a bunch of different magsafe adapters in my other car installations. In general, I've found magnetic attachment strength is much more a factor of the phone case that is used vs. the magsafe adapter, but curious which one you used. I do a lot of mountain driving, and having a magsafecharger-to-phone connection that is strong enough to prevent the phone from flying around in the corners is critical!
Also, not a fan of the posi-tap solution on the super fine gauge wire. I always like my mods to be 100% reversible, and would be concerned that those vampire taps might possibly cause an intermittent once removed. Not really sure what the alternative is, other than trying to route a feed wire into the compartment itself and using the existing USB port?
