Default How to remove trim around the cigarette lighter?
I have an '03 and that's the one-piece "n" shaped trim around the center air vent/a/c control/radio. Just need to tap unswitched power from the cigarette lighter for the dension gw500...

TIA

You might look under the radio for the loose conector for the moblie phone. That has switch and un-switched power.

Thanks for the tips! Do you know if I have to remove the CD storage rack to find that connector?
