Can you expand on what you mean by mounting frame?
It has a sliding wiper track on the side for the ashtray proper
to contact, and has two screws that hold it in. It plugs in to
the car's wiring harness. I thought I remembered that you'd said
it was also missing, but it sounds like that's not right.
Or am I correct in assuming that if I get the unit that pulls out by
depressing the metal tab, I have gotten all that I need, and I can
simply
place it in, and the lighter should be operational provided none of the
electric circuit has been altered?
Sounds right. Use a meter to see if the metal track (or is it a
tab that hits a track on the ashtray?) is 'hot' with the key on.
You need to be sure you get the right ashtray, is your interior
wood-faced or plastic?
