I am sure it's been asked before but I can't seem to locate it. I don't smoke in my 2006 Montero but I do use the console cigarette lighter for power. I need to replace it because it it broken and shorts out but how do you access the lighter since the ash tray does not give you access?

 

I'm not sure if you year rig had the same console assembly, but here is the link to the FSM for the NM model.

Once you do it for the first time, it'll be a breeze.

Good Luck

 

Sorry for the delay but A BIG thank you to Mr. Z for providing that link that helped out big time in accessing the cig lighter for replacement! Worked like a charm and made the removal of the console assy very easy!
