Correct lighter?

Correct lighter? - 03/10/14 07:29 PM

Does anyone know where to find a correct lighter for a 1967 Satellite? Mine had an accident and now I need a new one. B/E/A, PG, and YearOne have nothing listed for them. Should I be looking at parts yards?

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

What doesn't work? If it is the element then they are readily available on the eBag and at the dealerships. It is the standard lighter that has been used for years...

The body of it got mashed...so it's really not recoverable.

Are you talking about the socket or the plug in. The plug in knob just unscrews and you replace the rest which is available at the parts store. The socket is a standard parts store item.

A picture would help



I'll look around and see if there is anything laying around here you could use.

The socket goes into the trim ring and the knob attaches to the element. The socket and element are parts store parts. What part is crushed?

The removable element part is what I need. I want one that looks right.

To be correct in my words, I want a knob that looks right.

the knob unscrews. the element and socket are are parts stores. they haven't changed. you might have have to take the 'sleeve' off the element to unscrew the knob otherwise the whole thing will spin when you try to unscrew the knob.

There are different elements.But as said the knob unscrews and goes on the new one.I have a stash of OEs somewhere.Just dont remember where I put them.Rocky
