Message: [QUOTE="me2, post: 342310, member: 3825"] It took me 3 trial orders to get these. [ATTACH=full]87135[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87136[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87137[/ATTACH] About $13 each from a Ford dealer. They kept getting the round 12V outlets instead. They are from a 2011 Superduty. As far as I can tell they are only available in black. They are made to snap into a squarish hole. The cover says 150 Watts. I'm not sure if that is the limit of the Ford inverter or the plug. Or both. I believe that Superduties with the factory inverter only have one outlet The connecting pins are pretty small. I have not found pigtails for them. A Ford partsman claims to have found a pigtail for them, but I am not convinced that its the right one and he wants $65 for it. Doesn't seem right. I'm tired of ordering obscure parts. If you cut off the connector shell plastic around the pins, they protrude about half an inch into a cavity. I haven't tried to figure out the pinouts yet. I have the 2011 wiring diagrams and I will eventually. I am probably going to put 4 outlets in my truck. - One inside the console so that we can charge something and have it out of sight from tempting someone to take it. - One coming out the back of the console for people in the back seat to use. The only place I can see to do this is to replace the round 12V outlet, which won't look quite right or mount it on the flat part of the rear cupholders on the console, haven't decided this yet. - One somewhere on the front of the console so that the passenger can plug something in without having it plugged into the dash. - One replacing the round 12V outlet in the dash as we never use it anyway. I always find decisions like this hard to make and I hate cutting up my truck for fear of making a mistake. Thus I dislike doing things like this. I am looking for a HD covered 120V outlet for the truck bed. A partsman tells me that the Ranger based SUV vehicle came with one once, but he can't find a part number. I know that some Toyota trucks have a 120VAC outlet in the bed. FYI, I am powering my outlets with a Xantex 1000 watt pure sine inverter. I'll be mounting it to the back wall of the cab. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
