Cigarette lighter

[grankin]

Bought me a spiffy Pelican Parts cupholder, the one that plugs into the cigarette lighter's socket. Removed it the other day so as to not bang into a large passenger's knees. Didn't loosen the base quite enough ... and it took the socket out with it.

The socket has a two-pronged plug at its back, plugs into a two-pronged socket ... which floats free back there, such that any attempt to re-plug the lighter socket into it means that it just pushes it farther back behind the dash.

This does not impede the use of the socket for the cupholder at all, but now there ain't no power to run the radar detector.

Any clues on how to get this back to where it was before I screwed it up?

You need to remove the radio to get to those connectors.
