Hi everyone,

I want to fit a second 12V outlet in the console in parallel with the cig lighter.

Can anyone tell me how the lighter socket is held in? I'm not keen to use force on a car that's less than a week old.

Cheers,

Tony

I'm not sure. It does confirm they don't have a screw on the back. I'll have a poke around.

Thanks,

Tony

Hi Hawk,

Unfortunately I still cant see how to extract the lighter socket.

Is it easy to lift the lower console?

Cheers,

Tony

If you go to ERWIN and pay 30EUROs you can download all parts of the manual over a 24hr period Will tell you how to pull all of the car apart
