I think I may do a combination of suggested things: -glue plastic ring to the dash -attempt the find a tighter receptacle for the hole or somehow modify the existing receptacle to be tighter -run a larger gauge wire over from the fuse box or batt. Thanks for all your suggestions. I am curious though about Jerry's plug: >The lighter socket in my '88 Westy was missing the lighter, but when I >tried to plug in the lighter from my '90 Westy, I discovered the socket >was much deeper. Anyone else have a non-standard lighter socket? Are the later models just different? Thanks, Tolga |
