What size hole would I need to drill to mount this? Don't want eliminate cigarette lighter.

I can't tell you the actual size, because I used a dremel to enlarge the existing cigerette lighter hole, but I can tell you that at least on a Harley Streetglide, it is bigger than the standard cigerette lighter hole

The socket is a standard "cigarette lighter" socket, now called something like a "power port" on modern vehicles. The approximate dimensions are: a little over an inch in diameter, and about two inches long. The mounting foot is not included in these dimensions. I think it's about an inch and a half long, and separates the socket from the mounting surface by about three fourths of an inch.

I would drill it out. You have 16 mm to work with. If the screw was rusty it would be hard.

I used a 5/16 drill bit and a 1/8th inch pipe thread tap to get the threads started, do not thread the tap in to deep just about 3 threads that way the hole won't be to big. I am sure their are other ways to do it, this is what works for me.

The bolt (screw) circle is 11 5/8" so the hole diameter should be about 1/2" smaller than that or NO BIGGER THAN 11 1/8" otherwise the screws will have nothing to screw into. You can probably get away with using only 4 screws at 12-3-6 and 9 O'Clock. That's what I did.

Piwo's numbers are the closest. I'm installing this in a plastic dash that is only 1/8" or thinner and I want it tight. I will be cutting a hole 22mm wide (a little under 7/8") and 36mm tall (barely under 1-7/16"). If that isn't really tight, I will use Ba Pa's method of using a file to gradually increase the size. If the material you're installing this into is 1/8" or thicker, you should be fine with the 1-1/2" height an 7/8" width.

Sorry about the delay. Just reworked my grill today to replace the collector / igniter box. This part (Igni Assem) was already installed 9 or 10 months ago. So, I took a calipers and got some quick GENEROUS dimensions. 2.1 W 2.6 H 1.1 D (Orientation is optional for W & H) You can rotate to "male it fit"! 0.865 Thd OD. I used a Dremel tool to ease the original hole bigger when I put this in. Obviously, 0.875 dia drill, if starting at a new location.

The dimension details are 9.1 x 5.2 x 2 inches. I guess you would need to do some measuring. I use it on a Minivan and Mid-size car where the plug is below the dash - no problems. Good luck. Maybe you can get an cigarette lighter extension plug?

Greg, I bought it just in case I lost a bulb assy on my Christmas Village houses. I haven't measured the size hole but I would guess at about .75-1.00" My village isn't up yet so I can't look.

I did not have to cut a hole. The plastic below the bumper is already open where the tow hooks go. It is the same plastic piece used on four wheel drives which typically come with tow hooks already installed. My truck is a 2011 Silverado crew cab.

My husband measured the hole and it measure approx. 1 1/4 inches, this will fit on a light socket with threads on the end of it. I hope this helps you and if you have any more questions please ask

unsure, you need to know how wide the mounting bracket is. that will be the problem

Yes; if you have removed the lighter assembly then this will definitely fit...they aren't very big

The hole is large enough to fit a 5/16 diameter lug. This is what the lugs on my batteries are.

Hi Jeff, I have not installed the fan yet so I couldn't tell u the exact size of the hole needed. Im waiting for the cooler weather to do the install. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I would like to say you'll need about a 7/8 to 1 inch hole. You do not need a rubber spacer for this. It is secured in place with 3 screws. I would recommend using a marine grade sealant around the base and in the screw holes.

Dan, the lights are 4inch. I cannot measure the actual hole as the lights are encased in a housing. So if you do not need exact measurement I would go with 4 and 1/4 inches.
