keiser31 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) I don't think there is a place for one on the '36 Plymouth dashboard. Maybe one of the vintage aftermarket types is in order. They just clamp to the bottom inner edge of the dashboard. Edited May 15, 2015 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pehernan Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Hello Randy, I own the same car and I’m pretty confident that it has a cigar lighter on the left upper corner of the glove compartment. I’m including a picture that I have in my cellphone, but I promise you to double check as soon I get back home this afternoon. I’m new to the hobby, but I have the Parts List Book and Shop Manual, if you need parts number or reference.Pedro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pehernan Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Sorry for the delay but as promised, here I'm sending you the photos. I hope that is not too late. I have the P2 (1936 Plymouth) and the lighter is above the radio control, upper left side of the glove compartment. Feel free to ask anything about the original setting. I'm just starting my restoration and the car is all there, but been in storage for 60 years, need a lot of attention :0 jncx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have one there and I have an ash tray where the radio is. Doesn't seem to hard to put one there, Good luck with your restoration. Mine sat in a storage container for 15 years but was fully restored in 2005 so don't have much to do on it.Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudsy Wudsy Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) I think that most guys would be surprised at how easy it is to get answers to questions like this by simply going to "Google Images". Simply go to Google, click on Images and then enter "1936 Plymouth dashboard. There you will see photographs of four '36 Plymouth dashboards that have the lighters installed where they usually are -- in the middle of the fake glove box on the left side. You'll also see one picture of a cigar lighter installed right above the right ash tray. I've always thought that spot on the left side was a strange, overly conspicuous place for the cigar lighters, but it's probably what the factory recommended. Perhaps because they felt it might be easier for the dealership to drill holes in that particular piece while it's out of the car. (It's only installed with two or three small machine screws). In any case, that's the same place Dodge cigar lighters are installed, as well. Edited June 11, 2015 by Hudsy Wudsy (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
