I am going to leave it positive ground. I have this bone in my head
about keeping the cars as close to original as possible. After asking a
number of people, the consensus about the cell phone is that no one
really knows what will happen to the phone if I plug it in. It seems to
me that the situation is similar to insulating a negative ground radio
and wiring it into a positive ground car. I did this many years ago and
it worked. So far, I am not willing to risk frying the cell phone.......
