IIRC the lighter sockets of the W114/W115, like old American iron, are fairly
deep
when compared to the newer cars like R107+. The lighter socket hardware, like
seat
belts, are 100% American in origin, but have been drifting. The _power_
sockets,
though, I believe retain the original depth.

I believe so. I’ll check mine when I have the time. I experienced this in my
W210 wagon, which has a power outlet in the cargo area.

It’s been my experience that the Euro cigarette lighters are pretty short, so
the socket is equally “shallow”, meaning that anything like a charger that you
put in there will flop around.
Note that if you also have a power adapter socket it will be much deeper.

I like that idea. Paper won't cut connectivity?

I don't know. I was hoping to avoid changing one. Wonder if I can get a
larger plug on cord??

Is it a European thing? My old W115 300D socket is loose on normal plugs
as well. I have always assumed that it may be some sort of metric socket
rather than what we expect in NA. I think about changing it but haven't
needed to do so and thus haven't yet.

I had one like that, maybe in a 210 of the same vintage. I just put a bit of
paper in to shim it and it worked fine

My wife just bought a 2000 CLK 320 with very low mileage. The
