Default Cigarette Lighter Hole

I took my cigarette lighter out completely. I have no need for it. I dont smoke. What have some of you guys used in place of the cig lighter? Kinda sucks just to have an empty hole where it used to be. I dont have any other switches to mount currently, and all my gauges are mounted currently. Any ideas? Pics of anything in place would be helpful as well. This is a automatic trans am console.
