Hello All,

Does anyone know the name of, or where I can buy the plug that connects directly to the wiring for the trailer socket? Not the official LR loom, but just a blank plug so I can make the loom up myself.

I think it must be a standard connector, and I don't want to pay upwards of £30 for something I can make myself in minutes.

One of these...

I'm sure RS or Maplin sell the same thing under a different name, I just can't find the correct part....

Does anyone know where I might get one that would fit...

Just chop it off and solder your loom on, one less connector to corrode.

While you're about it, why not run a multi-cigarette lighter from it into the back so the kids DVD players can be run off it even with the engine off?

Oh, and maybe hook up a solar panel to trickle-charge the battery?
