I have found a few on the big auction site for a good price but figure I would see if anyone has one from here before buying one.
Anyone?

Most of the ones on flea pay have the neg cable at about 12"
and the pos at aprox 5ft. I know you'll do the necessary mods
to adapt to your 12v setup.. I'll get some basic bracket dims for
you this pm..

Make sure you placard the fender or hood next to that receptacle "12 V" The MV guys only recognize those connections as 24 volt and that round plug is regarded world wide as 24 volt.

If you have ever seen the acid mess a 12 volt battery makes when you jump it with 24 volt and it explodes!!!! Shocked

My advice is do not install the 24 volt slave receptacle in any 12 volt jeep. It's not worth the accident potential. The one moment you are not standing there and someone else runs the battery down and another unknowing friendly MV'er pulls alongside with his slave cable and POW.
