Default Adding another power outlet

Anybody had any experience adding a second power outlet (cig lighter type) over on the passenger side of the car or possibly for the rear seat passengers? I guess my one and only complaint with this car in my first week of ownership is the lack of outlets. My last car had them all over the place.

Haven't tried that, but you're finding out the HS isn't for long trips - lacks storage and connections (and a real trunk). Almost as if it started out as an electric commuter car and they added the hybrid system at the last second.

A lot of toys these days can be powered by a USB port, so maybe they figured they were giving you two power ports already...

Thanks for the response. There are some things about this car that take some getting used to, for sure. But I'm slowly acclimating myself to them and to this forum. I kinda feel like the comedian who taps the mike after a bad joke and says, "Is this thing on?". Such a small community compared to other forums I've been a member of. But I must admit I've learned a few things here, so that makes it all worthwhile.
