Hi all,

Can someone recommend a cig lighter USB adapter- all the ones I have are too short to reach the bottom of the socket in my GT.

glovebox USB is powering my Bluetooth audio receiver.

I don’t want the faff of taking the console apart and hardwiring one.

Thanks in advance

Thanks - I’m not sure I’m willing to pay forty-ish quid though.
$20 + $13 shipping, + any customs taxes

I soon realised on a trip to Donnington Circuit that my USB charger that I have used in all my cars was just not working in the GTS, so I removed the cig lighter altogether and fitted a dual Q3.0 USB charger.
Pretty easy to do and cost under £10.

Odd that this is a problem, men we had issues, currently using an unbranded twin USB adapter and working perfectly.

I’ve seen that video replacing the 12v socket with a usb outlet- I just can’t be bothered when I can buy an adapter to do the job.

I collected the Griffin one from curry’s today (£2.80), and found there’s no voltage at the cig lighter!
New fuse going in tomorrow.
