Trying to find repair parts for the cigarette lighter, I’m only needing the ceramic insulator everything is in great shape after a good cleanup. I can buy a complete unit but that’s not my first choice the one I have is OEM repos are a little different.
any help would be appreciated
Has anyone tried the new reproduction cigarette lighter socket? The new sockets are different in design but before I buy one I’m trying to find out if I can use the insulator in the original socket.
I found OEM cigarette lighter assembly on EBay. You might have to search a good while to find the correct replacement, you will most likely have to buy the whole lighter assembly.
I purchased a couple cigarette lighter receivers on eBay what I got was junk 2 receivers had broken ceramic inserts the new replacement is not the same and would not work in the OEM receiver.
Honest question: Do you smoke, or do you just need to charge your phone?
If you need a 12V socket outlet, I'd look for one by Blue Sea Systems. Since I just wanted USB ports to charge phones, I installed a 2-port QC 3.0 USB adaptor. When not using the anachronism, it has a power button to turn the light off, and can close the lid and still have a stock looking interior. Others on this Forum have gotten very clever hiding USB ports.
