Default Power behind glove box?

Hi Guys,

A month or so ago I read a post (could be an old one as i do read them) about installing cigarette lighter sockets in the top of the glove box and tapping the power from an unused plug behind the steel brace.

I have all the parts in and the glove box out....but no power plug.

Now I cannot find the post ( a great one with photos) by searching and it looks like I did not save the link.

Am I just dreaming? (I do that too)

Larry, those are right hand drives; the fuse block is under and to the right of the steering column. The good news is that the taps are there.

On our Left-hand drive cars, the GEMS module is behind the glovebox.
