If you like it, just get it and replace the euro spec lighter w/ a US one - deeper and tighter to hold accessories. I just did mine last week for all of $12..35 + shipping. It's great finally being able to charge my phone in the car w/out worrying about plug falling out, etc.. Here are the part #s you need and the prices for them from Sunset:

996-652-101-10-A05 Socket - $8.05
996-652-102-10 Lighted retaining ring - $4.30

Takes all of 10 min to upgrade it and definitely worth it. Link to how to from PPBB.com:
