12V other than lighter + ash tray light

Does anyone know where I can get a 12V power source other than the ash tray light and the cig lighter?

depends on what you need it for... the cig lighters are you best bet though.. if you have to draw more power than that you had better run your own.

What he said. But I tapped into the overhead light for my radar detector. That left the cig lighter socket open to charge my cell phone.
