  • Cig lighter removal

    Wondering if anybody has worked out how to get the cig lighter out without removing the entire console. I want to replace it with a Baintech USB socket thingy like in the pic (pic is of a 100 series)

      I don't believe you can. The tabs at the top of that section sit behind the centre dash. so you need to get the silver bits off first, then the centre dash. It's not a difficult job.

      Just on the idea, here's what I did.

        Thanks Heath, that's what I thought but I was hoping someone knew a shortcut. Too hot down here to get this done today.

          You're not wrong there. Have to agree though that a USB socket is more practical these days.

            I've just stuck one of these in the socket.
            2.1amp so good for the ipad.
            Fits flush.
            From memory $8 off ebay.

              Great idea, I'm buying one! We travel with 2 iPhones and an iPad will save on the chargers!

                  Job done, all you need to remove are the 4 silver panels and you can then remove the ashtray/lighter sub assembly.

                    Hmmmm, might have to keep this in mind when I finally get around to installing a UHF in the dash
