I wouldn't use whatever it is you've found. Best thing would be to find some in-car gadget with a ciggy lighter type power supply putting out 5v, and use the power supply.

Anything which can be used on USB generally uses 5V, so hacking the power adaptor is easy.

Using a resistor depends on the current the device draws, so without that info a value can't be suggested.
