i wedged a flat head screw driver on the side of the cigarette lighter, there is 2 square hard plastic pieces, i just added pressure and pushed the cigarette lighter out, on one of the lighters i ended up busting 1 of the hard square pieces off, which really does not effect it. there must be an easier way to get these out, anyway all done, the cigarette lighters still are solid in there, heres the black carbon fiber vinyl wrap i put on it, with the deck i found at the junk yard (w/ remote) i spent close to 3 hours working on this vinyl wrap, and its no where near perfect, but good enough for my liking
