> I was reading about this, factory installed BWM type plug on early Vanagons. Can someone please tell me where there were installed, and can someone please send me a pic of one of these?

Generally they were installed on the dash, like the cigarette lighter
socket. Nothing much to see, just a matte natural finished steel
socket about half the diameter of the standard cigarette lighter
socket. If you're looking to buy, I suggest Powerlet. They carry
really nice ones--- real metal with screw terminals, not the cheaper
plastic ones like you get from the John Deere dealer. I had one of
those JD plastic ones for my Dometic RC3000 portable fridge-cooler,
and some of the plastic bits started to get soft  because it draws
some pretty good amperage. The metal one still gets warm, but at least
can sink the heat into the surrounding chassis where it's mounted.
