I think you are refering to the plug for the flash light, and I also have the adapter that the previous post is refering to.

Definitely for a flashlight. You shouldn't be using "torches" inside your car. Open flames are bad the the interior. (yes, I know a torch is a flashlight on the other side of the pond).

This is where you can plug in the optional Flux Capacitor. Which of course only activates at 88 MPH.
