Xcelir had an interesting project to put a permanent plug for a charge. I'll probably check about it next summer. I have to open the hood every time and I don't have a garage too.
actually, people often think that it doesn't get cold or snow in parts of southern california in the winter and while the latter is true for the most part unless you live in the mountains, it does get pretty damn cold in many parts of southern california, particularly the valleys, where it can routinely reach into the low 20s (F*). the record low was set not too long ago in my city when it dipped to 14*F.
