Re: [Amc-list] Cigar (rette) lighter wiring

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I just bought a lighter assembly at Advance for the same reason.
It has a lug for the ground, yours should have one on the exterior shell too or long ago I remember seeing some with a ring/lug that sits between the retaining ring/exterior housing.
If all else fails you can solder or rivet a spade to the exterior housing.
The lighter assembly I bought was cheap, less than $4. I only want it to power up things like my garage door opener that I added an accesory plug to so I could stop buying batteries, that and some scanners need external power.
   For years I just had a cover on the lighter hole. I quit smoking 20 years ago in July! No way I'll ever go back.
