I'm guessing that this is a common problem so...
How do I fit a ciggy lighter into a 1.2 Breeze? Apparently the wiring is there somewhere already but I couldn't see it, where abouts is it? Is it a simple matter of buying a lighter from somewhere and connecting it?

Hmm, do I have to unscrew the whole ash tray section? - I'm sure other people have done this.

if u take the stereo out u may be able to feel the wires if not then go for the ashtray being taken out

Might be easier just to unscrew the ashtray, I don't have any DIN removal keys - taking it that I need them to remove the stereo?

The method I would use is to tap into a permanent live in the dash?
Should easily be able to find one

lol I'll try - well I'll unscrew the tray 2moro and see if there is wires there already because I've heard other people say that they are taped up there. If not, how do I get to the wires behind the dash? *Stupid question...*

^ just be careful with the polarity because i connected my ciggy lighter the wrong way and i had to buy a second phone charger because the first one was burned

Same here, well, want it for other stuff too.
Tried today but didn't have a screwdriver which could fit/turn the screws holding it!
