To take out the cigarette lighter socket in your Ford F-150, you'll need a Phillips head screwdriver. There's a screw at the back of the socket that you'll have to access by reaching behind the cigarette lighter. After you remove the screw and the socket is loose, you can pull it out and disconnect the wiring harness it's connected to. Be sure there's no power to the cigarette lighter to avoid any potential danger if you insert a metal object into the socket, which could lead to electrocution and damage the cigarette lighter. You can buy a new cigarette lighter connector for around $20 at a local auto-parts store, which should also include the necessary accessory for installation.
