( Or for that matter probably never figure out what in the heck it does----) >> The weekender models have a frig under one of the rear facing seats. The plug on the frig is a European style and the socket is located on the back of the driver's seat base. The socket they use makes a better connection than our cigarette lighters do. How many of you have to fidget with your cell phone charger cord to keep a good connection in your lighter outlet? Most of the European accessories have a plug that will work in either the cig. outlet or the european style. You just twist off a red cap on the end and it fits the euro sockets. btw, I sell these plugs as well. btw, I just got back last night from picking up a really nice '93 Weekender from a dealer in St Paul. I flew up and drove it home. A customer of mine traded it in on a new one and let me know about it. Steve Lashley SKL Enterprises Inc. http://EuroCampers.com 636-797-9015 636-789-2127 fax |
