First I've heard of an "accessory port" vs. a lighter rerceptacle. Do
you know if those are available as aftermarket items which can be
installed separately from the usual lighter receptacle?

My '99 Dodge PU has one, plus a lighter jack. They look similar but the
accessory jack is fused higher and, unike the "lighter", isn't on the
ignition switch circuit. Works great to power different 50W 2 meter and
dual-band rigs. There's also a place in the armrest for your packet station
