AS VW T4 Trooper (1994) 12v outlet socket
by JollyMack Thu May 23, 2019 10:15 pm
Hi. Question re: our ‘new’ 1994 AS VW T4 Trooper
on Zig panel there is a 12v outlet which is smaller than a ‘standard’ 12v outlet.
Searches say it is a DIN socket, but that has pins, or a Hella DIN but it looks to deep for that connector to fit.
Can anyone advise what I should look for?
Regards
P.S. how did I attach a photo to this to show the socket I mean?

Typically for that year of van it will be a Hella-style socket. In my experience they are very much better than cigar(ette) lighter sockets because the dimensions of the plug are very much more tightly defined. So although it may be a bit annoying to have to buy a different plug than more usually fitted, the results should be more reliable.

Hi Jollymack
How did you get on with the hella converter does this work well. Did you convert the hella to a plug from the leisure battery
Cheers
