This weekend I was driving home in my "new" SPi along unknown roads. For that reason I had borrowed my dads sat-nav, which has a battery that lasts for 2 hours. Unfortunatly its a 10 hour drive....

Plugging the charger/holder into the siggy lighter, much to my annoyance absolutly nothing happened, looking into the hole, it was obvious it haddn't been used for AGES. Now I have a replacement, but cant work out how to get access to get the old one out.

Can someone tell me how to do so please?

as far as i know mini's were never made with a siggy lighter socket so its lightly to be a after market one

the one in dolly the camper is held in by flaps of metal that bend out from the body of the lighter


if your is the same leaver them back in with a screw driver through the hole where the lighter goes
