How To Remove Cigarette Lighter

[CliffD]

Hi all,

Does anyone know how to remove the cigarette lighter socket from an Auris TR MMT (07 plate). Mine's got an intermittent fault. It must be simple to remove, but I obviously don't want to damage the centre console trying to take it out, so I thought I'd ask here first.

Thanks

Cliff

most cig lighters sockets have a clip you prees to remove it,make sure you ignition is off incase you short it out.

Presumably I've got to get the centre console out to get behind it, so perhaps my question should be, how do I get the centre console out?

no,the clip is in the middle of the socket were you put the lighter.should not need to strip anything out.
