you cant still charge. Basilly just take the black wire from the ignition, tap into a green ignition on wire under the dash and connet the black wire to one part of the cig socket and the other wire to the other part. then bend the tabs of the socket in so the lighter does not stay down

as of right now, my cig lighter is ONLY a removable push start button.  i am in the process of wiring in a switch so that you can switch from start to charge so you can use the lighter.

nope. you can push the button and all itll do is turn the starter. you need the key for fuel.
