Back by popular demand.....

Fancy adding a touch of modernisation to your 240? How about a fancy 12v socket to go in the boot of your car so you can run a tyre pump, cool box or whatever else you fancy?

Includes everything you need to mount them in the boot including socket, blacking plate, plastic nut for securing and a good length of wire to start you off tapping them into where ever you like. These are good quality USED products originally made in Germany, not some cheapo Chinese trash

I've just done this on my 240 estate. All I used that was extra was some extra wire to take the live to a source for power, a loop end connector for the earth and an inline fuse for extra protection.

Please note, this will only work as well as you wire it up. I am not help responsible for any problems that may occur from "dodgy wiring" if we must call it that.

I have two in total for sale. Both with over 1/2 a metre of cabling to get you on the way.

£9 delivered each

I picked mine up from the original cigarette lighter feed and fused it in the middle.

You should always connect fuses as close as possible to the power source in order to protect the maximum amount of wiring.

Hence why I accept no responsibility for peoples wiring methods. That's up to the buyer

These are an amazingly handy thing to have in your boot. Nothing stops you fitting them to a saloon or even a none Volvo.
