When I molded in the installation kit i just used fiberglass, bondo and a lot of time.
On the back of the cig lighter there is a screw that will allow you to take off the whole thing. After the cig lighter was out I used a jigsaw to cut out the "flare" that it has. I put fiberglass on the back of the cig lighter hole and I used bondo to fill in the rest and smoothed things in.
