    Yes they do; they call it "the socket for charging up my i-Pod".

    I'll bet that those two either have lung cancer or cancer of the larynx now and are either dead or they quit smoking shortly after that.

    Maybe not Joe, you ever notice when they interview centenarians almost all of them drank and smoked their entire life with little or no ill effects.

    Further to that, in that era they didn't have filters and low tar or lights.

    I just realised (I've had it near on 3 years) that my Grand Vitara has two of these sockets on the center console but no cigarette lighting implement. Baffling! They sit there beside the unused seat heating switches. Who really needs their farmers warmed up. My chalfonts are warm enough as it is. :mixedsmi:
