Re[2]: Cigarette ligher adapter

     I mounted a Pep boys lighter socket in the right side of the dash 
     support down near the trans tunnel.  A bit  cuts the aluminum easily 
     and the location is easy to wire.  Both the portable CBs and the cell 
     phone work fine from that location.

Jeff,
If you're not looking for stock, your local discount auto parts store will have 
one (Pep Boys, Autozone, Super Trak, etc.).  Your bigger problem is where
and how to mount it as the spongy crash pads don't make for a very stable 
platform.  My project car has one that appears to be stock but I think it's 
smaller than the normal lighter. I think, because I haven't been in the driver 
compartment for a while and all the parts I take off that I have nowhere to 
store go in there. I'll look for you if you want, just holler back.
     
Andy
