3 Ways to Fix Your Car’s Loose 12-Volt Power Outlet

Ever plug in an accessory to your car’s 12-volt power outlet and it won’t stay put? The vibration of your car on the road doesn’t help as it shakes it loose. Secure that baby with these 3 tips.

Wrap your accessory plugs in baloney before insertion to ensure a tight fit.

Wedge a golf tee with a grape on the end of it alongside the accessory plug and jam it in there.

Make a sleeve of old math tests from your school days. Place the sleeve in the socket and then jam the accessory in the sleeve. You can do the same thing with that parking ticket you found on your window this morning.
