the easiest way would probably be to disconnect the lead for that socket, then run a FUSED wire from a constant source. this can be from the battery but may be a bit of a hassle & overkill for just a lighter socket that will probably only handle like 20 amps max. if you know what your doing then you could get that constant power in the dash either at the fusebox or ign switch, but don't just tap any wire that's hot unless you know exactly what it is. you will need to tap a large circiut so you don't overload it.
