Can I replace this myself, or is it replaced only by the dealer? Is there a do-it-yourself video for this? Also, where do I but the fuse?

Hi,

Most parts stores will sell you the fuse. They are not expensive. Also, here is a link that explains things as far as a car fuse and hot to check and replace one. It really isn't hard.

Let me know if that helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Good morning,

According to the wiring diagram for your car, the fuse box at the lower right side kick panel contains the fuse for the lighter. I attached a picture for you and circled the fuse number.
