Hey does anyone know how to hardwire one of these units, instead of using the cig power cord? I want my install to look clean. Thanks!

you could always cut the cig adapter part off and hardwire it to power/ground .. may or may not work and might have to buy a new adapter

as most cig plugs have a fuse built in, youll want to add an inline fuse to the power line

That's exactly what I did for mine. Just cut the plug off, and use a fuse tap/ground.

I've used it that way since January, and it's worked just fine so you should be good.
