Re: "Special" items when converting to 12 volt?

Howard hit on everything I was going to add. For my Cig lighter, I just replaced the 6v element (the coil piece at the end of the "knob"), with one from a 55/56. So it keeps the correct "knob".

Also you will need a high amp voltage step-down for the blower fan, or use the 12v motor from a 55/56. The blower housing is different, but the motor and squirrel cage are the same.
