Not after making it like this but if you had a power supply that put out 5v and 12V and you had the right data interface. Actually the usb interface board of an external HD would work as long as it runs on 12 volts then you can use a 12V car adaptor to run it you just need to adapt the cord that came with the HDD to the 12V cord. then you need a USB A cable and a car stereo that can read MP3s on a USB stick

can you connect a hard drive to a car stereo id like to try that some time

@WRH052970

Do you mean as a speaker to play music thru like the video or as a storage medium for MP3s?
