    Yeah, it looks like there are small tabs, but it doesn't look like the lighter is detachable...at least without breaking something. The tabs don't push in. I've found nothing on the internet to help me with this. Apparently it's not a common thing to swap out in a Grand Prix.

    my regal had the twist on ring on the outside of the console holding the cig lighter up from the bottom. the whole socket would turn, so i had to hold the socket and turn the top of it, had a plastic spacer on the bottom (on the socket but under the console) too i think.

    have you tried to fix yours? get some 100 grit sand paper and clean out the inside of your old one, and some times the ground wire likes to fall off too. im sure you checked the fuse already.
