The Beast (124) has a factory lighter....no lighter though. I've been meaning to put a new lighter assembly in it's place since I bought it.
I know it's original because the dash trim panel says "lighter" next to it.

I was in a junked out ford truck (not sure of the year, late 80's to early 90's) and happened to notice the lighter, exactly the same as the one in my 149, same one in Captmax's pic. I got it to use, the original one in my 149 is very stiff to operate and some rust on it, no doubt from stints setting outside.

Go to a local pick and pull, the lighter out of an 1988 Ford 1/2 ton pickup has the exact same lighter as the one in the cubs. Get the socket while your at it, once mounted in the dash you can't see if it differs from the original or not, no one will ever know the difference!


AND, I doubt they even charge you for a lighter!

The 108 I picked up this Saturday has a cigarette lighter. It works, and the element is so clean I think it was never used.


I did not realize they were rare options

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
