Yes, just tapped into the cigarette line (hard wire to hide the cable) or plug-in and added, as an example,

Make sure you check your cigarette light power source - it's either continuous or keyed power (this is better), otherwise you may wish to place a switch between the install (to prevent battery drainage should you leave a device that's charging, plugged in overnight)

w210 AMG or S213
I think its keyed power. I had an E46 that was continuous, which is nice for charging your phone, until you kill the battery
