Smile '13 Ultra, Tapping into Cig Lighter to Power GPS

Hi,

What is the easiest way to tap into the back of my cigarette lighter inside the fairing of my '13 Ultra Classic? I want to use that to power my Garmin 590lm GPS. If anyone has instructions on how to do this, that would be great...or even pics. Is it as simple as plugging a couple spades? OR, is there more to it?

I don't want info on how to use the pigtail off the light bar, tap into the rocker switch, or wire directly to the battery. I've read about all the possibilities and have decided to tap into the cigarette lighter.

Thanks so much for your help.

-Amy
