12v tv socket

[Geordiewal n worlass]

Hi, does anyone recognise this 12v socket and know where I can obtain a plug to fit it?

 

[Richard n Ann]

Is it one of those old caravan type sockets? I'd replace it with a marine type cigar socket, much more useful ?

It's a standard Hella socket.

That is one you don't want, it only has two negative contacts and you are forever twisting the plug in some sockets to get a connection.
You need the ones with contacts all the way around.

There is also a Hella to 12v socket dongle it you want to leave the socket alone and only have a standard 12V (cigarette) plug.
