I installed my foglights a while back and my cigarette lighter slot thing worked, but now when i plug in my radar detector, it doesn't work. is there something i should check? what fuses?

 

there should actually be a fuse labeled for the cigarette lighter. if not check the ones that are for accesory or somethin along those lines. but i'm pretty sure its gonna be a fuse. and also dont forget that there are some fuses under the hood so check those too.

 

if its not a fuse its simply just a wire came un plugged but theres a really good chance its only a fuse

 

have you looked at the cig lighter yet? to make sure all the wires are still connected. in my civic those wires came out so quick and easy. just a big bump could disconnect them. personally i cant see why hookin up your fog lights would blow the fuse for your cig lighter...but i dont know exactly how you hooked it up.. so im not sure. good luck with that tho. let us know how it turns out.

 

is there a good way to look into the wire beside pulling put the entire center console? the trim pieces are a bitch to get off and last time i almost cracked on (right now there's a white line from the tension of the pull).

 

unscrew them first?? its like 4 screws to take off. no big deal.

**EDIT**
just kidding. im not sure about 05. i had an EK. and its gunna be a lot different for your car. i cant imagine it would be that hard tho..

 

i have an 02 civic coupe and the dash peice is the same. it was super easy for me to pull mine out, i just grabbed the sides and just pulled toward me unitl the pice came out? if you have the one with the flip down cup holder thing then im not sure cuz i have the normal cup holders without the arm rest console. what do you have?

 

i have the flip holder with the arm rest....

 

Does anyone know of an easy way to remove the slot holder that is next to the accessroy slot? it's easy to punch out from the other side, but i really don't wanna remove the trim pieces, since a piece will definitely snap.

 

na man im not sure, do you have or know anyone that has a hanes manual, cuz i dunno i wouldnt go buy one just to do that, or you could buy it then return it when your done haha
