Default Female needed for connection

Can anyone give me a clue as to where i can get a connector for the following plug? 2004 GTO Cigar Lighter, there is no Cigar Lighter in the car. It is empty and would like to connect to it without cutting.



I've covered all the bases i can think of....GM Parts department, local shops, radio shack. Thanks

Only thing i would think of is the stealership since that car is so new.
I know you dont want to cut the wire, but thats what I would do along with a solder

Whats on the back of the cigarettel lighter? A plug like you need? You might be able to get some spades that hook onto the 'teeth' in that plug

You can pull the pins out of the connector by pressing the lock tabs with the tip of an awl. Then you can put them in a standard 4-pin square connector that you can buy from electric shops. That way you don't have to cut the wires and you can configure it to match whatever accessory you want to install.

i'd like to connect to a female also, but it's probably a different type of connection than what you are talking about
