How many power (cigarette) plugs are there on this car?
We looked everywhere and only found the single one in the console.
I noticed in the owners manual there is an extra on in the dash if you opted to not get the NAVI but for NAVI owners there is only one???
I'm going to have to custom wire a few extra's if this is the case

I don't have the NAVI in my 2011 CT and there is no extra one, maybe that's the 2012 model? Yeah, I was very bummed to only have one plug in my car. Due to that, I hardwired my radar detector directly to the fuse box. I also bought a splitter that plugs into the one plug, turns it into 3 plugs, but it's quite bulky...

^Sorry to get you excited - my car is a 2012 and in our owners manual it shows a 2nd power outlet in the storage compartment on the dash (which would have been the NAVI screen)
I guess in 2011 they did not have this feature?
No big deal since I plan to pull the dash apart to do the Beat Sonic NAV/DVD bypass module and will hardwire an additional dual 12V jacks under the dash. Bad move on Lexus part in this day and age of cell phones and gadgets though!
Also planning to hardwire my V1 with the custom mount under the rear view mirror so looks like another project is un-folding...hehe

I have a solution for only one cigarette socket on a Lexus CT200H
Use a spare USB socket - connect a USB 5V to 12V cigarette socket convertor cable
This will provide a 12V supply for a camera etc.

I can confirm the 2012 non-Navi model does have a power outlet in the dash storage (same location as the Navi screen would be), and a power outlet in the center console alongside a USB port and aux jack.

Wiring extra should be a cake walk. but how many outlets do you need. I just have a dual usb cig lighter adapter that is a rapid charger. so charges my phone lightning (no pun intended) fast!
