Add a 12v power outlet to 89 Carerra?

Anyone know any easy way to add a second 12v/cigarette lighter type outlet to the interior of a Carrera? Ideally, would like to tap into power under the dash and just have a corded outlet available. Don't want to drill or cut or mount anything.

I use a splitter and avoid having to hack anything into the car. You could conceivably have a cable under the passenger seat. You should avoid making holes in anything if at all possible.

I have a three or four place accessory pod velcro'd under the glove box. Can't be seen from sitting position but easy enough to lean over and plug something in. I just extended the wiring and went through an existing grommet in the fire wall. Grounded to one of he factory ground posts near the fuse panel and hot lead attached directly to the fuse panel for the existing lighter circuit. Pod is keyed with ignition like the factory lighter and protected by the factory fuse. Pod also has it's own fuse so it should go before reaching he factory limit on that circuit. -J
