How do I get images from two different cameras to look similar (esp color saturation)

While I know that ultimately it's impossible for it to be perfect, is there a way to get the jpegs that come out of my 7D and 5DMii to look more similar in terms of color saturation? I know that there are a ton of factors, but I'm throwing it out there.

Regardless of lens, I've found that the 7D produces better images right from the camera. I think it's the new metering mode, because exposure in Av mode is almost perfect every single time. I tend to need a little more time with jpegs from the 5DMii, but nothing a couple of presets can't take care of.

I use Lightroom 2.5 if that helps with any recommendations.

Thanks.

1. Don't shoot JPEG
2. Shoot RAW
3. Make custom profiles for your cameras using a colour chart (takes about 2 minutes)
4. Import using those new profiles
5. Enjoy your perfectly matching colours

Can you point me in the right direction for how to do number 3? Thanks!

Nevermind. Just saw your link.

Here is a thread where I show an example of the profiling process with X-rite's products:
