Re: What to do with cigarette lighter hole

I'm keeping mine on my 68 GMC for originality and to use a phone charger, small tire inflator and a spot light.

Re: What to do with cigarette lighter hole

Woah on the fur thing. You "put fur around the hole when you can't find it." I think he has found the hole but can't make up his mind what to do with it. Put the lighter in and go with a vintage accessory lighter that lights the smoke for you. Fur in the cab is a must for the female passengers to keep them warm.

Dang! I wish I knew earlier ... I worked from my home office all day to day and could have jetted out to the West Side of town to meet you guys for lunch. Please drop me a line by way of PM next time you're down this way.

Re: What to do with cigarette lighter hole

put the orginal in and paint it red and people will ask "what that button is for" and then you gotta stomp it or brake hard when they push it

ben it is the same style knob as used on your dash. They are cheap to replace and they come with a cig. lighter, female holder, light, bezel and wiring with instructions. Around $20.00 bucks.
