Default Cigarette Lighter (power socket) Replacement

Has anyone replaced their power socket aka cigarette lighter? I'm looking for a good replacement. Something that will last.

Are you looking to use it to light cancer sticks, or to power some cool accessory? I replaced mine after it developed a short using a plain-jane part from the Help section of my local auto parts store. I don't use it for anything...

I did mount a dual-outlet USB charger and 12V receptacle in the dash of my 94, over on the passenger's side right beside the HVAC/Radio "console".

Just charging a phone or running a Garmin gps off of. I'll look at the Help section at my parts store. Thanks.
