USB Ports in place of lighter socket
 

I want to replace my lighter socket with USB port(s). Has anyone successfully purchased a USB replacement for the lighter socket that is small enough to fit in the metal dash opening without modification?

You can buy a flush mount, dual port, socket insert that goes into the lighter socket on Amazon for just a few bucks.

Got one from eBay, the brand is Retro sound. It was cheaper buying it there. I have it connected to my after market radio, I use it to play music from my iPhone and charge it at the same time.

The truck I want to put it in does not have a lighter or anything. just a open hole with a plastic plug in it.

Coppertone, do you remember the seller on ebay that had those?
TIA

Shouldn't you be getting your new engine installed instead of working on dumb stuff like a USB port in a 50yr old truck? :lol::lol::lol: LOL!

Just stick one of these in there and call it good. :metal:

Sorry I don’t remember, just search retro sound USB port.

This is in a 60, not my 70. The 60 doesn't have a existing lighter socket.

I found it. Would work great on my 70 with the usb and aux jack on the rear of the stereo. But this is for a 60 that has no radio yet.

There’s one that has a small triangle so that you can mount it on the bottom of dash. It’s a small black triangle. Go to the official retro sound website so you can see what I’m talking about.
