I dont know what exact requirement there is to make this installation.
If this guy did simply removed the cig lighter and placed the remote there without cutting and gluing, that would not be too hard to replace batter or put the cig lighter back in there.

I personally do not use cig jack. I dont smoke in the car (although I am a smoker) and USB port below the cup holder is just good enough for me to mount my phone and charge.
Why would you need cig lighter (if you are not smoker).

If this modification requires cutting and gluing... I would not do it personally. But cant find a better place than putting it in cup holder with the foam support.
Not a smoker myself and don't use it but you never know I just like having an extra plug option. But yeah really depends if cutting or permanent changes are involved
