Is there some hack to change the cig lighter from always being on to turning off when I turn off the car? I want to put a USB adapter in it, but don't want to have to pull it each time I turn off the car.
The lighter is always hot so that you can plug a battery maintainer into it.

Thanks.
I plugged a UB adapter into my cig lighter... 7 years ago. I've never been compelled to remove it.
Why is it necessary to remove it each time you leave the car? What's the deal?
If a 986, you could always replace constant + on plug w switched + from the phone option plug buried at base of center column (or pulling line from fuse panel if 987 or 986). Or just add USB plug in dash w +12V switched power from phone plug (or again via pulling line from puse panel if 987 or 986) and leave cig lighter plug available for battery mainter use.
