Full Version: auxiliary 12v in headlight shell

This has been covered on this forum elsewhere so I'm not looking for advice on how to do it just where I can get the other half of this connector in the UK. I'll paste and copy my FB post to save typing it out again

Going to fit a USB charger to my bike but what a palaver. I want to use the 12v ignition circuit supply in the headlight rather than run it to the battery but Honda do not supply a live plug to their blanking auxiliary 12v supply in the headlight casing. Oh no they expect you to but a £137 kit, yes really!
Obviously i can just buy a waterproof plug for £2 odd from amazon but it means cutting the current half a plug off and fitting a new one with around an inch of cable to play with in an awkward place. I will probably have to pull the loom out of the headlight shell to fit the new plug.
In the old days I would have just cut the plug off and twisted the wires together Smile
I got switched 12v inside my headlight to run LED lights and didn’t buy anything to do it. Would have been a few years ago so can’t remember exactly how, but I did…

I wired heated grips into the headlight connector using Positaps and it was a piece of cake: https://a.co/d/ca9Eu9W

Should work I believe
I will try to look later. Lord Popgun has previously identified the connector and where to get it.
