silly problem, so bear with me,
gave the car a good clean inside and out, had to replace a few a few dash lights on my girlfriends tipo and i noticed my ashtray/cig lighter backlit was also gone on my marea.
replaced the ashtray on no problem, after taking the whole unit out, but could find no way to replace or even remove the cig lighter or lamp.
its the only thing not working on the car, a small niggle, but that makes it more annoying!!:bang:

If i am right you need to remove the lighter unit from the dash and there is a square plastic lump sticking out of the side of the ring and the bulb is behind that
