I've spliced the cigarette lighter cable ('coz I need the
12V for other things usually anyways) and ran a (phone)
wire on the pass. side (under the carpet, and pushed behind
the inside windshield rubber trim, all the way up and around
so it came out just above the mirror), plugged it into a
phone cord extender (2 female RJ11 sockets), and glued the
extender to the windshield above the mirror.
My detector has a 3" long power cord now, and I plug it into
the extender.
(it's a V1 and it has a RJ11 shaped power cord).

It was a 10 minute project, and there's no dangling wire
anywhere.

To access the cig. lighter wire you have to remove a center
console side panel (very easy).
