So I tried searching around on this site and google, but couldn't find what I needed. I snapped the wire that plugs into the cig lighter outlet and just need to know the size of the wire so I can fix it since I need it for my car topper (delivery driver). Anyone have any idea?

Should be about a 20 gauge, maybe 18, but no bigger than that. Depending on where you snapped it, you could probably just strip both ends and use a "butt connector" it's not as good as soldering, but it'll get you by in a pinch, and it'll add about 1/2 an inch, so it won't be "too short" like it would if you soldered it back together without adding wire.

Just my .02 ;)

Thanks man. I snapped it about 3/4 inch from the connector. I'll prolly just solder it to extra wire so I have more play with it than last time. But I'll keep that tip in mind!
