Default Cigarette Lighter?

Okay, I'm trying to switch out my pealing console/radio plastic and I'm having some issues with the cigarette lighter (the piece that's actually connected to the plastic by the cup holders). It turns around like it is loose, but I can't get it to come apart. Is there a trick to this? I don't want to break the thing...

Default re; cig lighter

I just changed mine the other day, I also had problems getting it apart. I just sort of jammed a small wood handled thing into the lighter, and grabbed the outside at the same time and twisted them in opposite directions, and it screwed apart. Really simple.
good luck!
