Ive just obtained an aston conditioner but when ive checked the rear panel for the connection there isnt one.any idea how much would it cost to have the male connector fitted or can you do it yourself.ps i have a trickle charger, but thought it was easier to just plug in the conditioner. Thanx lads

The (non-Aston) trickle charger I have just plugs into the accessory socket in the boot. The boot still shuts easily enough.

I use it if I'm not going to be using the car for a week or more. Maybe not necessary but I'm an ex TVR owner and I can't break the habit. biggrin

Is the socket just below the battery off switch?. if so theres just a hole in the alloy mount.
ps theres a 12volt output but didnt think that was it.

Yes, it goes in the accessory socket. (what used to be the cigarette lighter socket) Aston's have 2 or 3 usable sockets.
