is it just the lighter part or the whole lighter assembly you are looking for?

like youve done - if you just use a flatblade screwdriver to push the two bottom tabs/prongs out a bit then that should solve the problem :)
I think that over time these tabs get flattened in to the sides so dont grip the actual lighter.
Im not sure if you can do this in situ - maybe best to disconnect the battery first if you plan on doing this when the unit is fitted to the dash.....
