Default cigarette lighter how to get out?

I know this sounds stupid, But I cant seem to get the cigarette lighter base out of the ashtray. I would like to replace so i can charge my cell phone. it does not look like there is anything holding it in but I cant get it out. Any help would be great.

Most cig lighters are 2 pieces threaded together. you'll have to hold the inside (where your charger goes into) and grab the backside where the ground wire is and unscrew it. they're usually only hand tight but i've had a few stubborn ones!! hope this helped good luck
