It will not be a problem. Connect positive wire to cd player +ve wire and negative wire can be connected to car body.
In the older altos , mine was 2004 lxi the wiring was available to attach the charger . It was plug and play . I had done it back then .Both positive and ground were present . No mods required. Sorry no more pictures available . Sold it one year back . May be different in newer altos now .

mine is 2005 Alto lxi. so it mean mine should have wires already? how to check wires are already available? only hole for socket is available. and it is very easy if the wires are present.please help. badly need a 12v power outlet.
Check behind the hole for the cig lighter . Two wires should be there . Put your hand in an check . In 2004 I got it done in Acc shop where car music system is fitted . He just fitted the lighter and the wiring was already present .

Other members have confirmed that positive wire for power socket is already present in every car. So you just remove the ash tray then by removing two screws remove the trim and install the sicket.
There is an OBD port below the ash tray find it. There is a bunch of wires running to the OBD port and in those wires there is a gray wire with a black stripe which is not connected to OBD. It is the wire for power socket. I am attaching the pictures. For -ve you can take a wire and connect it to direct car body with the help of a screw above the clutch paddle area.![[:)]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Smile.gif "Smile [:)]")

i checked near OBD port wires i couldnt find a grey wire. but when i check all OBD wires there were 2 seperate wires and they wire taped to with OBD wires.
One wire is yellow black strip one. other wire is full black. they had green rubber connectors at the end.and theywere connected to nowhere but taped with OBD wires together. are those for 12v plug?

yes it is it![[clap]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Clap.gif "Clap [clap]")
, just check them before you proceed. take any 12v bulb and by connecting those wires check if it is lighting. i am sure it will. That yellow with black stipe should be +ve and black will be -ve. +ve will be connected to middle of the socket .
