Loose Cigarette Lighter

Hi all,

I have a Vauxhall Corsa Merit 97. The cigarette lighter is very loose at the moment and I need to tighten it up. Does anyone know how to get to the cigarette lighter? I have removed the radio but there's a metal encasing for the radio. So how on earth am I suppose to get to the lighter?

Anyone know?

Many thanks,

Chris

    surprised a "merit" has a cig lighter , but anyway, drop down the ashtray, theres four screws two either side, remove these and the complete assembly drops down, this is actually the best way also to get to the radio connectors if your taking cage out .
