1995 vw autosleeper clubman

Hi wondering if someone can help I have two 12v/10a sockets on my van which I want to use , I did buy a adapter to fit in but seems to be a bit short think this was called Hella fitting or something this was to short. My  socket looks to be about  40 -45 mm deep. Din plug comes up while researching but just not sure. Or would it be easier just to remove old socket and replace it with a modern one .thanks Adrian

Cheers they don't do the male connections anymore the one in the photo I bought previously but is to short for it to connect into the socket.  Is it just easier for me to replace the two old sockets  for a more modern type with a USB ,would that work,  thanks

Our 97 clubman has the same. I did buy a plug, a Hella Din ISO 1465, and it would fit, but to be honest I have never even put a wire in it. Couldn't think what to use it for!

I wonder if something like this would be handy?

Could this be what you need.....?

That would do the job.

I just ordered one of those plugs off Amazon, with the usb fittings. I'll let you know!

Hi cheers for the replies,  I bought this plug a while ago it fits into the socket but the brass part is still about 20mm to short .

This be the one I bought, from vehicle wiring products, about 18 months ago. Fits fine...(tested it last night with the volt meter)

Actually...maybe post up a pic of the socket too?

Cheers guys all sorted the one I bought does work found a little socket switch I needed to press for 12v lol. So the one on the control panel works happydays,  but the one on the dashboard next to the cigarette lighter still doesn't have any power any ideas. Thanks

If the socket doesn't have power could that be as simple as a fuse?

An update...

This arrived this morning. Seems solid in construction, and fits the socket well, and, importantly, works. 

As Paul says, the other socket may well just be a fuse. Where is it? Does it work with the ignition on?

Yes that works on the control panel , yet to look at the other one on  dashboard but cigarette holder works with ignition off but I presume that could be off main battery.
