Mike,
     I already have a new cig lighter.  My problem was getting the old one
out, which I finally did.  Next question.  I need to touch up the
underplate and the console plate.  There are some small rust spots on the
under slide plate I got.  It looks like a dull silver grey finish is in
order unless somebody already touched mine up before.  The ashtray cover
looks more like chrome.  I thought I've heard Hammerite mentioned as the
paint to use, but I don't see a listing on their web site for US
distributors.  Any suggestion out there for what works for a 69 2000?
Rustoleum?

Save your energy and go buy another lighter from an auto parts store.
They're cheap. Use the original pull out thingie.
