    I just need the entry socket and not the thing that looks like a "willy" :o

    Does anyone know where I can get one please?
    Do you mean get a plug?

    I have just purchased a new car and it does not come with a cigarette lighter or as the salesman told me a 12v accessory. It just comes with a USB adapter built into the car. :mad:

    Just out of interest will you tell us what car it is?

    no , just looked in the back of my focus , just carpets , no 12v socket

    My Mk4 Mondeo estate has two lighter sockets - one in the dashboard and one in the rear luggage compartment. Just the place for keeping the champers chilled!

    Yes, what's this car, please, so that we can avoid buying it! Ciggie lighter sockets are still greatly in use, and provide far more power than even properly connected USB ports do. Are you meant to use a foot pump if you get a puncture? Does it come with a spare tyre?
