Cigarette light dash panel removal

Cigarette light dash panel removal

Postby Jwandering on Thu, 03 Jul 2014 5:57 +0000

Hi, I'm new to the forum and find the Hugh amount of info available very helpful. However I need some advice, I wish to remove the cigarette lighter panel in my 2008 Single cab. I want to access easily the rear of the lighter to use it as a power source for a tyre pressure monitoring system monitor. Can anyone advise me on how to do this? Any advice would be great cheers.

Pop a blank insert out with a screw driver and pull toward you.. Or if you stick you head in the footwell and look up toward the panel, you will see a couple of groves in the base of the panel. Pop these with a screw driver

:D thanks guys I'll be able to make progress now, there is nothing more frustrating than knowing there must be a simple answer but not being able to find it. Thanks again
