Electrical USB howto?

USB howto?
I am looking to put USB in my mini. Reason is because I'd like to charge my apple bluetooth headset, and the only charger for it I'm aware of is USB. Conveniently, It would also charge the iphone and appears to fit in my passthrough pro-clip mount.
So, does anyone have a howto?

I have one of those and it works but is kinda intrusive. if you reall want to get all hightech get one of those and use it to permanently hardwire it into your car with the USB port someplace nice. There was a post from an R56 owner where he hardwired a USB port in place of his cigarrette lighter.

Just Saw this old post and I dont know if you ever figured out a plan, but I bought a Belkin iPod Charger that broke down into two parts. I ended up using it on a custom project. I wired in a Radio Shack 12V socket, but it was black plastic and very stealthy. For my needs it all worked out well. There's a pic of my project and the Belkin USB adaptor in there, but I think you'd have to buy the whole thing. I only got the carger for a road trip in the GF's car, but it worked here...
