Mounting Inverter in-cab

Where did you get the plug and how did you mount it to your console?

 

i do believe i will be stealing htis idea mine is under the passenger seat hardwired and i hate having to run wires through the whole cab, this would be so much cleaner!

 

The plugs come from the actual inverter itself. I just took them out, extended the wires and relocated them. I cut holes the same size as the plugs in the dash using a dremel.

The cig lighter was from kragen or something.

Thanks!

 

Subbing for my hardwire install.

 

I'm about 3/4 of the way through installing my inverter.

I installed my 800 watt cobra inverter under the passenger seat. I ran 8 gauge wires from the battery, through a 100 amp fuse, through an existing grommet in the fire wall. They enter the cab to the left of the pedals. The wires go above the pedals then head toward the rear of the cab by the shifters. I installed a switch under the stereo. The wires come out under the center console and go under the seat.

Rather than taking apart the inverter and voiding the warranty I'm extending the wires to a pair of something like these:

I'm extending the USB with this:

I figure this way if I want to move the inverter to another vehicle it won't be a hassle
