Well thank you, what a lovely thought. And thanks for the lesson, I'll put that in my memory bank

Leave your quarter on the table.

So, the implied proposition is you can join a group harassment, but....

O.k., Norway is great and the people have good teeth.

Say whatever you want, but here is what I say: salt for the goose is salt for the gander.

If you wanna join a pack of wild dogs on some poor Arab dude, that's your business.

As for the actor, well, I have not the slightest....

Your vocabulary are a bit above my paygrade. Phrases unknown to me....

But you need to ease down on the booze, your sarcasm don't suit you at this hour. (01.50 am)

No sarcasm here, just observations and booze. You demand Scandinavian symmetry. So, salt for the goose.

As to being old, I can't control it so it's unfair to attack it.

As I am now, so shall you be. As you are now, I once was.

Replacing a fuse is very basic. My last comment is that I suggest you find another forum. You're not welcome here with that rather abusive attitude.

Today I was a bit high when I found here the reply to my problem, but then I haven't checked yet (trunk is full, need to remove all to access the fuse haha).
I will try to do it soon, but can someone tell me what kind of fuse I should buy to have them in advance ? how they are called and how they look please ?
I guess that it's always better to keep a box in the car in case of emergency ?
I will change the lighter fuse but then if lighter still doesn't work, someone said to change the socket ? but where to buy it please ? can you help me more ?
Thanks again to all ! I <3 you :-)

Locate the fuse using the attached diagram to orient yourself, and pull the fuse out. Needle nose pliers work well, or your fingers.

Replace the fuse with a fresh 15amp one. They're available at any auto parts store. It's a good idea to buy an assortment and have them handy.
