Hardwiring cell phone chargers: droid and apple

I just thread my aux chord from my glove compartment to my arm rest on my 07 e350. However I want to go further and wire a cell phone charger to my arm rest for my android and possibly my iPod without taking up the cig lighters... Has anyone done this with pics?

I have done it...but failed to take pics. I did the same AUX to armrest wire as well. We run Pandora from the phones on the daily commute. Bluetooth was nice but the sound quality wasn't there.

There were power lines running in the console I tapped in to. The charger is .5A so not a huge draw.
