I know that Cocker Spaniels are born with long tails and I am sure that
some owners choose not to have their dog's tails docked, but I just don't
think that would look quite right.
Install the ashtray.

I can't say definitively, but a) I've never seen a Healey not f=
itted
with an ash tray and b) ash trays were installed on all cars, at
least for the American market, until a decade or so ago; carpet only
covering the hole would have been awkward. I usually keep a few
quarters for meter in mine, and sometimes a spare fuse or two.<br>
<br>
'Cigar lighters' were, I believe, an option; the replacement ha=
rness
for my BJ8 I bought came with a wire lead (brown) for a cigar
lighter which, unfortunately I didn't properly insulate and it let
some smoke out.<br>
