How many volts are in the cigarette lighter of my 2000 chevy metro?

[Jasmin]

I was wondering beause i wanted to buy a heated seat thing for my car and it requires 12 volts...and if its not 12 volts will it still work in the car or no?? thank u very much in advance for ur answers

It should be 12 volts at the lighter. If it's any less the seat thing won't work right because of the smaller voltage.

its 12V its basically a direct line from the battery
