ooh...hateful. I removed my locking lugs...but before that, it lived in the center console, available to anyone that wanted to steal my wheels.

Is it safe to jump or charge the battery thru the cigarette lighter ( even if possible ? )

Yes. Lots of products to charge through that port. Do a quick search on this forum... you'll find plenty.

Good luck!

I noticed that when i turn off the car, leave the key in, open the door and leave the car with the window open, the interior lights stay on indefinitely. I sometimes do this when working on the car.

But, if I pull the key, open the door and close it behind me the light turns off after 10 seconds or so.

That's what I've been careful to do so I don't leave the interior lights on all night.
