Cigar lighter
Had a look in the manual 35-40-2, but don't have a clue how to wire it. Mine doesn't work. Want it to power my iphone or a camera.
The manual shows all needed parts but not a wiring diagram.

simple solution for you is to
a, go to your local auto parts house (ie o'reilly's, autozone etc.) buy an aftermarket cigarette lighter assembly.
b, find a wire under your dash, that will only become "live" when key is turned to acc/run position,(you may even already have the oem wire with the connector there) then check your fuse
c, attach to cigarette lighter and then run a ground wire to under the dash
done

Looks like this and yes it is behind the cluster AND behind/up under the L/H side the glove box area.
Cigarette lighter is a one wire power source and then grounded when installed.
Diagram... look at the top R/H side area for the cig lighter, its there.
