powerwise i htink you will need a transformer to make 12V into 240V so it will work. for the glovebox i would imagine you will need to drill goles in the back so you can get the wires through.

i've done it, if you take the glovebox out you'll see the bottom of it isnt square, theres a kinda rectangle thats tapered down, you'll see what i mean, cut all this shape out leaving an edge to retain strength and thats it, it just slides in, the cutout allows for wires and plety of cooling.
