Default cigarette lighter socket is too big!

Does anyone have an easy fix or know where to get an adapter so i can use my cigarette lighter socket for my ipod charger? It is too big and the charger doesn't stay put.

I've had the same problem with every Porsche I've ever owned. I used to wedge a piece of cardboard in there to compnsate for the difference, then I found a neat adapter that adjusts for any lighter opening via a sleeve that wedges any lighter plug. Simple but indispensible.

Thanks for the great link Dave. I've been looking for that thing everywhere.
