Not that I'm aware of. But it does come with a 12v outlet so it should be an easy swap to make that a cig lighter.

There's a kit that includes the lighter and an ashtray that mounts in the storage area below the outlet.

It's a genuine Toyota accessory for the Yaris. I don't see it listed in the US accessory list, but it is listed on the Canadian one:

Maybe this is a silly question, but aren't all automotive 12V power outlets the same? Couldn't you just go down to your local auto parts store and buy a cigarette lighter to plug into your existing outlet?
Or does the '07 not have the power outlet? |

That is true - The Toyota lighter is no different than any other, except for having the logo on it. |

You can buy generic lighters that come with both the socket and the lighter element at just about any auto parts place. Last edited by Altitude; 06-26-2010 at 12:33 PM. |

CTScott thank you! How can I find the part number for this? The page you linked doesn't list the part number?

I haven't seen a part number for it. I would try either your local dealer or TRDSparks.com to see if they can get it and/or have the part number for it.

The 12v outlet we have doesnt work with cigarette lighters. I've tried 4 different ones. 2 stock Toyota ones and none of them supply any heat after any amount of time in the outlet.

Interesting - So in that case the Yaris specific kit that thebarber posted the link to must be required. There must be something different about the positive contact (the one at the tip) that prevents generic ones from working.

The factory Yaris one has a specific connector that plugs into the oem cabin harness..my results with aftermarket cig lighters has been less than stellar
