Cigarette lighter?
Anyone ever have any trouble with it? Seems mine let go of the sleeve that holds the lighter element, and now the piece which holds that sleeve is kind of floating around behind the fascia plate. Is it necessary to remove the whole center console to get to it? Looks like there's a torx screw right next to where the lighter is....
TIA

you'll have to take the radio bezel out to get to the back side of the lighter. to get to that, you'll have to slide the center console back and remove the traction control plastic piece. then you have 2 screws in the ashtray area, and 1 behind the temp sensor near the ignition.
