gain access by removing the radio and reconnect it. It sould be just a slide on connector both B+ and ground.

the cig lightewr is actually located,in the ash tray,when you pull out the ashtray,the cig lighter is located on the left,and the radio,isnt the one that came with the truck.so do i still pull out the radio to reconnect the cig lighter?

Go to the fuse box and find the fuse for the cig. lighter. Take that wire and splice into it with another wire and route it up to the lighter. Then route a ground wire to it. should do the trick
