Had a TR3B for a number of years in the early 70's that had ash tray and
cigarette lighter which was located in the lower right hand side of the central
gague panel---thru the vinyl "lip" in the corner. Looked very proper with a
small chrome bezel and unobtrusive knob.

Hi Folks,
The new Moss catalog shows an auxiliary lighter for under
dash mounting. They give the impression that it is a "period"
accessory, is it?? I would certainly like one as a "power-point"
for cell phones, GPS, but would the Judges agree??

Sure, why not? At least since 1972, when I bought it (and probably
dating much further back), my soon-to-be-sold 1960 TR3A has had a Casco
cigarette lighter in the dash. Very likely it was installed by the
dealer or by the original owner, in or near where the OD switch would
go. But then this car also has the supposedly so rare and valuable
"factory optional" ashtray.
