I did see somewhere that you plug in a led flashlight into it. Would be worried someone would steal it, so I never did it yet.

I used the wire that was on the cig lighter - it just pull off the wires from the socket, put the new one in and reconnect. Make sure to ground the outside of the socket and positive to the center; for some reason I remember the lighter being wired the opposite way... but I did this back in '09 so I might be confused

I put the iPod adapter on my radio and ran the wire to one of the glove boxes on my RGU. I can put my phone in the glovebox and it will play. Music and charge. Now what to do with the lighter?
