    paper or any type of combustible material , in the range of a ciggie lighters heat sink is not smart. It will catch fire

    I advice to take out the centre console section , screw off the ciggie lighter and have alook at what exactly is missing. The lighter unit simply "screws" to the plastic centre console so it should be too hard to fix with a quick look.

    jam a ciggie in there,then if it spontaneously combusts,just sit back & enjoy soothing ciggie break
