Fitting a Quick Charge 12v 3.0 USB Car Charger Socket with Voltage Gauge

My car was missing the cigarette lighter socket, so what better than to upgrade to a Quick Charge 3.0 USB Car Charger Socket with a built in Voltage gauge!

When it’s wired to accessory do you know how to bypass the power button so when you start the car it turns on without having to push the power button every time

Do you have to wire it in if u still have the cig plug there

[@ModorFix]

Yes but it would be quite easy if you know what you are doing. Just tap in to the +/- wires on the existing socket

Hey mate, nice simple mod that. Do you have a link where to get the socket? I can only find them in China. Cheers

I got mine from amazon but its out of stock now. Try this www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Dual-USB-12V-24V-Charger-Quick-Charge-QC3-0-Socket-Power-Outlet-w-Voltmeter-/363442884303?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

@@ModorFix Thanks fella, just got my civic, driving me mad with just the useless cig lighter - subbed

@@benamandius587 mine was missing in its entirety so made sense to fit the dual socket. Just bear in mind that if you need to use anything with a cigarette lighter plug like I did the other day, there is a socket in the boot ;)

What tool did you use to change it to spade?
