Adding power plug? Can't Post

My car came without the cigarette lighter charger in the center armrest console and in the back.

Is there a way to add these, where would I start?

Mine too. Hmmmmmm. I'm almost willing to be that the wiring is there. Car companies usually use only a couple of different harnesses. So upgrading is usually plug-n-play.

I'll have to take a lookie.

I think there is an easy way to do this:

Pop out the front power plug, and wire the leads to the same wires that the front is wired into, then run the wires along the console and put the plug into the hole in the center console. If the wiring harness is there, then it makes it a little easier.

I installed an aftermarket CD player in my 07, and I needed a 12V ignition switched source and just used the front power plug to get it wired. Once I get my plug installed in my center console I can upload some pics if you want.

I haven't yet, been way too busy with other things to get to it, I want to finish installing it soon. (Shoot, it only takes a few minutes, I might do this on my lunch break tomorrow...)
