Cigarette Lighter Power Switched With Ignition

[Maxer]

Hey,

Its been a long time since my last post. Hope all is well.

I just picked up a Garmin Nuvi for navigation (didn't get the built in option). Its plugged into the cigarette lighter for power, but since the cigarette lighter is "always on" it won't turn on/off with the ignition.

Anyone know how (or if its possible) to change the cigarette lighter to be switched on/off with the ignition?

Any advice would be most appreciated!

only switched power that i know of is up in the lining that connects the universal garage opener.

i tapped it for my valentine one install.

but as a suggestion, isn't it much safer to disconnect the unit and store it when you park the car? (not even close to being the solution to your problem but.. ^^;
