BELKIN is a good manufacturer. I have their stuff in all my cars, no issues whatsoever.

But OK, I must admit, your obove solution is a sure installation, so when you pull the cable it stays in place. Credit for that SmileWavy

Good question.
I have one now and the voltage reading is inconsistent. It reads low after being.plugged in for a while. Unplug it then Plug it back in and it’s ok... for a while then low again. Bought another and same thing.

might want to check/clean/replace the fuse for that circuit. I ran into that too, and found that the fuse had oxidized and was no longer making a good connection with the fuse block. New fuse fixed the problem and I now have a (more) consistent voltage reading from the lighter socket

Here ya go. All measurements are in mm.

Sorry to Hijack, but Radio delete bucket, where did you get it? I have the flat delete panel from Porsche but the bucket would be more useful.

Thanks,

eBay, radio DIN tray

you cn even find some with cupholder function.

Awesome, thank you. Just making sure it wasn't a Porsche part.:D

Perfect. I'll post cad files and try printing. Probably tonight, after we dig out from the snow.

Good job on printing these. I'd be interested in buying a couple of these if you decide to sell them in the future. Stay well.

I've got this one too and the display has been dying one bar at a time... about 2 years old...

Cad done. Will try printing this weekend.

Looking good!

Hey dad911, care to share the CAD file? I would love to print one of these!

Also looking for this, would love to have a secure USB port right there.

Lighter sleeve.
 

Would love to buy one also

Has anyone else installed this? Seems pretty straightforward and could be a good solution, although I am hesitant to give up the vintage look of the original unit. Mine doesn’t appear to be currently functioning though- the plug-in voltmeters that some have linked doesn’t fit correctly and even holding it in by hand I can’t get it to work. I’ve checked the fuses and I recently cleaned the fuse panel and dash ground. Maybe I’ll just replace the lighter and use the plug in type.

Here’s the link on US Amazon (other link is the Canadian store):

That one fits quite well, no wobbling or loss of power:

Anything ever come of this? I'd take one as well if they perform as expected! One thing I'd be curious about is if they may melt when using. Perhaps not, but just a thought.

Can you still get this model Flojo, can’t see it over here in England?

I hacked my old cigarette lighter and used the retaining ring to take up the slack
