Isthere something wrong with my lighter? My cell phone adapter fits really loose. Anybody just replace the whol;e unit with a USB outlet?

Typical German lighter socket. This is a common complaint among 911 owners too, even in the mid-to-late '80s. The German lighter socket is a bit bigger than other cars.

There's an inexpensive adapter. A couple threads on pelican.

Escort used to ship these with their detectors. I imagine someone ha something like this available these days as well.Click to view attachment Click to view attachment

I have just bent the two metal tabs on the side of the adapter outward a bit.

Rolled up paper jammed between the side of the socket and plug will work too.
