More info on cigarette lighter sizes here. Sounds like you got an A plug and need a B plug.

Problem Solved. I have a B plug. V1 sent the shorter/thicker adapter with a single outlet "Item# 20304" and it works great. I decided to try adding the Escort sleeve to it and it's super snug. Thank you for the help.

Sorry I didn't get a chance to take that pic. I've been pretty busy lately. Glad you got it figured out tho. Did the V1 rep finally disclose that there is another adapter available?

No problem. I got a different person from V1, and yes, this person knew without question what I needed. I called back today thanking them and mentioned it may help to describe the different adapters in more detail on their web site. That would have saved a lot of time for everyone. I am happy not having to push the adapter back in place when I hit a bump each time.

It's V-1 for me!
After dealing with the loose plug for the past two months since I bought my 928, I finally ordered the alternate adapter yesterday... Today while cleaning the garage, I find the box from my old Escort, containing two sleeves.
Ain't that always the way?
