My guess would be that you'd have to locate the circuit, and use a (fused!) bypass to an unswitched part of the fuse panel (clock?) - just make sure you don't put something in the adapter hole that draws much more power than the clock normally would (reason I'm saying this is because I don't know how much current the unswitched supply wire can carry!)

A cell phone charger shouldn't draw very much through an unswitched circuit that would normally handle the clock...
