Im building a mp3 player for my car and i want to run the cable from my comuter to my cd drive externally so my question is there some kind of thicker cable that i could purchase maybe better insalation and are there cables that would say go 4 feet aproximently or a way to attach smaller ones. i have already thought about getting a external drive but i dont want to spend the funds for it.
