To install the USB socket in the Alfa Romeo 147, you must first remove the cigarette lighter. To do this, lift the leather gaiter of the gear lever to disconnect the cigarette lighter connector and remove it from its housing by pushing from the inside out. Once the cigarette lighter is removed, insert the piece with two USB sockets into its housing, which must then be connected to the internal connector.

Once the piece is connected and inserted, lower the gaiter of the gear lever back down.
