OK, anyone use an aftermarket cigarette/cigar lighter for their car? Since the one I have doesn't work and, from my observation in Italy, is rusted like nobody's business, I need to replace it.

I have seen OE parts offered for about $80 but I'm not sure I want an OE model. Anyone have any experience with this particular item?

You would be surprised at how well it could clean up!

I would take it out and go at it with a wire brush. If the center coil is broken it may be hopeless but if you are only using it for power you can solder a new center piece in and call it a day!

They are very basic units
