I predict he results of such a mod will be another item in the list of
roadside failures.
Just convert to negative ground. Then you can add all the gadgets (in dash
TV, wireless internet, hydraulic ram electronics and cell-phone chargers you
want).
I did it to run a Alternator, CB and power outlet.

Subject: [Healeys] Positive Ground Power Outlet for Accessories
Hi Folks,
To install a power outlet, such as for charging a cell phone, in a car with
a positive ground electrical system, is it simply a matter of running a wire
from the positive post on the power outlet to a adequate ground, running a
wire from the negative post on the power outlet to a "hot" wire such as one
of the terminals with a white wire on the ignition switch, and then
isolating the metal portions of the power outlet body from touching any
metal parts on the car?
I also plan on installing an in-line fuse in the wire to the ignition
switch.
Thanks for your help.
Ron Ray
