Default Cigarette lighter plug??

I just bought a 98 TA and the previous owner unplugged that cigarette lighter wiring harness from the back. I have looked and can't see anything that looks like it would plug into the lighter. Does anyone have a pic of what the plug actually looks like so I will know what kind of plug I am looking for? Thanks

It's a 3-pin connector with only two wires in it - an orange and a black. The connectors for the cigarette lighter and the auxiliary power outlet are exactly the same except that the lighter connector is white plastic and the outlet connector is black plastic.

Found it thanks man. Mine was actually a grey 2-pin connector. It had been tucked back by the shifter. My battery is dead and I can't remember, but is the cigarette lighter power switched?

Not on our cars - it's a constant (battery) connection.

I need a source for my shift light and all of the radio, ac, etc...has been taken out. Don't know which plugs are which out of the harness and my test light was broken.
