accessory power

alright, simple question. I have a 2004 LX. Is there any way to keep the cigarete lihter accessory outlet on when the car is off? i leave my phone in the car at work, and it's quite cold outside, and if it were attached to the charger, it would stay warm.

The ACC plug could easily be rewired.. use a relay (big amperage differences) and wire it in with ignition #1 wire in the steering column...

But on another thought, it's not a good idea to use your car charger for long periods of time. If you continue to use your car charger for long periods of time, your battery in your phone, it will kill the battery and you'll be able to talk on your phone for like.. half an hour tops.. just food for thought I suppose
