Does anyone know if there is something aftermarket to replace the ashtray and/or lighter? I'm never going to use it anyway and If I can find something that would be useful, even it its just a slot to put receipts and change in, it would be much improved.

that is an awesome idea. I want to ake advantage of that wasted space as well...
I must say that I am a smoker, but I have not smoked a single cigarette in my new lariat screw. If I took out the ashtray and lighter, I would have even less to persuade me to smoke while on long trips... (right now I just pull over and get out first)

Now there's less of a chance of another roadside fire being ignited by a discarded butt..

I thought about replacing my lighter with one of these Mini torch flashlights from volkswagen:

Since the manual says not to plug any accessories into the cigarette lighter port though, I'm not sure it's a good idea. Wish I could find a simple, unpowered Cell-phone holder that would plug into the cigarette lighter port. Guess I could modify one, but hate to pay for power I'm not going to use. Finding one big enough to hold my MP3 player would be sweet too.

Whoops... I wired up my radar detector using that power. It doesn't plug in, but I piggy-back off the power on the back.

I would assume that a cigarette lighter would draw a mighty amount of current.
I know my radar detector draws didly, that's why I didn't worry about it.
I just didn't realize Ford had that note in the user's manual.
maybe I should learn to read sometime.
