Cigarette Lighters, where from?

[froggy]

Hopefully starting on the leisure battery fitment this weekend but want to install some cigarette lighter sockets around the van to power 12V equipment (mobile phone charger, portable DVD players etc) but i'm struggling to find any sockets.
I've tried an Ebay search but that mainly brings up the 3 or 4 in 1 extensions where as i'm after individual sockets like in cars.
Any ideas where i can get some from, probably looking for 3 or 4. 1 in the dash for phone / sat nav, 1 for my 2V cooler, 1 or 2 in R&R kick board for portable dvds.

with these

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300283912292" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

good quality discrete and good price

I'm still on the look out for a good period socket and lighter for the dash

you can get flush pop out ones, but i cant find a picture of them, VW use them in the boots of cars.

I have scored some really Gucci ones for my van. I have a few flush fit, smooth opening ones from a Bentley. I will get some pics up soon.

A mate had a load, but the supply has dried up. That doesn't help you much I know.

I got those Bentley ones for mine off ebay, best part is that they are stamped VW on the back :wink:

I just looked at the part number, it is 4B0925071A. It looks like they are used on Porsche's & RS4's too.
