I have a 2003 C220 CDI Estate. Absolutely love it and the 55mpg I get out of it. Couple of things need fixing however and I wonder how easy it is to repair myself rather than taking it to a garage.

1) Cigar lighter has in the centre console has broken which is a pain as the plug in Sav Nav won't therefore work. Any idea where I can get a replacement and how easy they are to remove and replace?

2)The washer pipe to the rear window wash/wipe seems to have come off so every time I try to squirt water on the back window it simply wets the carpet on the rear tailgate. Is it difficult to reattach?

Thanks in advance

1, depends which type centre console you have, pull the rubber cup holder out, and then push the cig ligher holder to the left and it should open up and then be easy to change, also check fuse or the 2 prongs that grip whatever your pluging in they can bend out, jest bend them back in (ignition off)

2, remove boot trim and re-fit adrift pipe
