Cigarette Lighter Wanted

garth66garth66"When speed is the only thing that counts"
I'm looking for the cigarette lighter for a 72 pre-L Pantera. Does anyone have one they don't want, or know what other vehicle shared the same cigarette lighter?

Tip for the day: Never set a socket set in a soft sided case on the center console while working under the dash. The weight is enough to depress and hold the lighter knob without allowing it to pop out when it's hot. The result is, it will begin to melt.

Thanks,
Garth

I'll second that warning about not laying anything on top of the lighter. I've got an armrest with the radio built into it, while working on the front of the engine, I had tilted the armrest forward enough to press the lighter down & keep it there. After a little while I saw & smelled smoke coming from under the center console. Not a good day! Fortunately I was able to disconnect the battery quickly & avoid any other damage, but it definitely added a few more grey hairs!
