12V socket making to work whe engine off

Have anyone managed to enable the 12V sockets whe engine is turned off? this is very annoying for me, not being able to charge my bluetooth headset overnight in the car.

I would think that it would be possible to take a feed from an interior light but this would only mean that the power would switch off after 1/2 hour - the on board computer will shut it down. Would like to be wrong though. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

Maybe it would be possible to connect it on wire which controls the hazard lights, I can't think of anything else which would be on when the power is off...

You could take a feed off the perm 12v at the back of the radio

I think that might have a time limit on it. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

I believe TFC over on the DISCO3 site found where to take a permanent 12v feed from. Take a look at the following picture - should be the same on the RRS.
