It just so happens that I took mine out today!

Now mine is a 2001 model but I think it will be the same (If not ignore me)

Remove ash tray and there is a screw that goes into the left frame work, remove this!

Above the cigarette lighter there is a screw that goes upward into the framework, remove this!

With the ashtray removed pop out any switch blanks below the ash tray opening!

Now the awkward bit. CAREFULLY pull the surround out and down slightly while supporting the edging of the surround. (Mine was very tight) Then unplug the cigarette lighter and fully remove.

Hope this helps!

I only found out that mine wasn't working last night when I tried to plug my satnav in. I haven't had the car long and the cigarette lighter had never been used by the previous owner, how do I know this? Because the plug wasn't on the back of the cigarette lighter :no:

Probably been like that from new!
