Can you modify car cigarette accessories?

I just bought 4 neon lights and they all use cigarette car adapters to power them. Is it possible to just cut off the adapter and splice the wires to the power and ground behind my head unit? It also has an on and off switch but i can always just rig one up myself. Thanks in advance!

1. It is definitely possible, just keep in mind that it is probably easier not to mess with your head unit, as the fuses/grounding and stuff is quite sensitive. Try placing a fuse in series with the entire setup and rather connect it straight to the battery, or even to the ignition, thereby removing the need for an external switch.

The center pin on the cig adapter is the 12v +. The outside lead is ground.
