Too many mods to list PM me I'll tell ya.
cut the pwer cable from the pass outlet, splice into the driver side and reconnect into the passenger side( the driver side is a "always on" already.) should take about 12 inches of wire some solder (for a nice secure connection or those plastic blue tap things for a quicker easier splice) and about 10 minutes and your done.

If you want to use both outlets at the same time after doing this, will it overload the fuse? I need to change my driver's side outlet out because it is too damn short, but on a long trip both my wife and I plug in our cell phones to charge.
The front left and right power sockets are separately fused, each at 15 amps, which is way more than enough to charge 2 cell phones. So you might consider one of the Y-socket adapters like this: http://www.cellphonemall.net/wireles...31&phoneid=507

Cool.
As for the Y adapter, I would rather have an functional socket on both sides. The short one on the driver's side is useless and that irritates me.
