I don't know about the windows kinect, but for the normal one it is quite easy.
Just clip the cable that runs from the AC adapter to the Y-connector. There should be two cables inside (brown and white, if I remember correclty). Those should be powered by 12V from your robot.
The best way to ensure that is the case and that the polarity is correct independent on cable colors, I'd suggest measuring the power on the clipped AC cable first.

Also, there is a (Tutorial)[http://www.ros.org/wiki/kinect/Tutorials/Adding%20a%20Kinect%20to%20an%20iRobot%20Create] that describes this.
