To install the cigarette lighter socket on the Fiat Panda, you need to install a backup battery to connect the device, so as not to compromise the operation of the main battery. This will be housed inside the boot area: you will need to drill the side panel of the boot to insert the socket and the corresponding battery, connecting everything to a control cable and a power cable.

Once everything is mounted, pass the cables through the bodywork and check that the device functions correctly.
