I bought one of those power outlets from Walmart for $7.00 and installed it on the chrome piece behind the headlight. The windshield protects it & it can be used for charging as well as a cigarette lighter. Best part is I used a piece of that Command strip mounting tape to mount it. It worked great for the 4 years I had it installed. I wired it into my battery tender plug so I could unplug it at any time when I didn't need it.. Took it of when I installed a Kuryakyn fairing because that has 2 outlets on it.. The Command strip came off clean with one pull...

I carry a piece of coal, wrapped in Spanish moss, inside a cone-shaped piece of birch bark. jk, I removed my horn and rubber isolator, and drilled the hole on the horn mount out to fit, and installed a marine grade dash mount lighter. Got an old sportster horn and mounted it between the frame down tubes. That lasted for a long time, except some of the lighter inserts tended to wiggle out going down the road. Funny story, the first time that happened, I had no backup fire, and drove 40 miles to get a light (yes, it was Sunday, and I live in Mississippi). So when I hit town, there was an auto zone open, so I just went there and bought a replacement. Next time I cleaned her up, my lost lighter had dropped straight down and was laying on the primary! But, I just did a coil relocation, so that took my cig lighter spot, so now I guess I'm going for the triple tree covers, unless one of y'all's great ideas hits my fancy....
