Sure, do it all the time as neither of my other cars has a cigar
lighter.  Here is a picture of the dingus I use (I realize the list will
strip off the attachment but you should get it okay).

It actually came with a 12V Impact Wrench from Harbor Freight (a useful
tool in it's own right) & I use it with a 'cigarette lighter' extension
cord like they sell at Target -- but if you're building your own you
certainly can (as they say in the emails) "MaKe iT LoNgEr".
