I Need an Alternative 12 V socket
Can anyone recommend a replacement 12 v plug and socket to replace the OEM cigar socket? This is to run my fridge in the back cargo area and ideally I would like something latching.

Thanks in advance.

theres not much too them, a marine style rotates to kind of lock in or you can get the arb style that kind of screws in. alternatively you could wire with anderson plugs. mine was just whatever brand marine style receiver they sold at the auto parts store, and so far a few years and lots of offroading haven't knocked the plug loose.

run new wire for a dedicated always-on outlet, don't re-use the existing plug/wiring

I happen to like Anderson power poles but they do not latch. They click into place.

Thanks fellas!
I did run a cable back there so I can have a dedicated always on circuit. I'll pop down to my local marine store and see what they have.
Thanks for the help.
