cigarette lighter power
my 2007 c230 cigarette lighter socket does not have power once the vehicle is turned off and I'd like to be able to leave my phone charging in the car when I turn the vehicle off. any one know a safe easy way to supply constant power to it?

Have a DC per outlet installed to run off constant power. That is my only suggestion. Good luck.
