    Might be buying a 2010Tacoma tomorrow. I have one question for you guys and I cant wait till tomorrow to find out. Does the cigarette lighter work when the car is off and key out of the ignition? I am hoping you can charge a phone with the car off. Thanks

    No it is not powered when the key is OFF, it also will not charge a Lumina 928 Windows phone for some reason that may be related to the phone.

    It is super easy. You need to locate the relay under the dash. It is on the back of the fuse panel behind the coin tray to the left of the steering wheel. The step by step instructions are super easy. I did this on my 08 and now my 13 too. Best mod IMO.
