My dads focus has a constant supply of power to his cig lighter. even when keys are out? mine doesn't. Im only asking because i broke my phone charger for mains socket at home so i can only use my in car charger.

Anyway of getting my lighter to do this?
 
there is but it would drain your battery wouldnt advise it
 
Getting a constant live to your cigarette lighter is fairly easy and won't drain your battery as long as you don't leave things running off it

well i would only run my phone off it which takes about hour to charge, wont be all the time, just if i forget to charge it on way to work and it wont last all day
 
well, easiest fix is to take the radio out, take a tap off the constant 12v and feed it down to the cig lighter. replace the 12v wire on the cig lighter with the wire you just added and thats it.
 
sweet cheers this wont be done for a while only when i start on my interior still waiting for bumpers and stuff to be painted
