[Non Smoker] Creative ideas to reuse the lighter slot

Hey guys,

I'm not a smoker & It feels like the lighter slot stays unused.

Could you guys share some creative ideas of repurposing that slot?

Thanks!

Next time a smoker gets in the car insert his/her finger in the slot until the required temperature is achieved and ask them how they like it now? Rolling with laughter Regards

Lovely i6 has now gone, but not me......

Please let me know if anything in my post offends you, as I may wish to offend you again......

Just read about the Finnish skier who having competed in the 30km event had to use a heat pack to thaw out his ‘gentleman’s sausage’. Now if he’d driven a Freelander . . . . . Rolling with laughter

Turn them into Anderson plugs https://www.freel2.com/forum/topic33954.html

Or

TPMS

Put some carpet in the lunchbox while at it (& door pockets).

But in the meantime added another socket so moved it to the dash so it is always in view.




I have actually added 3 more power sockets for hard wiring dashcams, it was the easiest solution due to the camera USB adaptors. They are in the boot behind the easily removable black trim piece on the left.

I plug a GPS into the front socket. The rear socket often has something stuck in it!


More power options under the seat.

Is that TPMS display linked into the FL2 system? Looks like a good idea but the only one I can find comes with its own valve sensors etc.

(edit.... just found the answer in an earlier post of yours here:
