Check this out. I didn’t really like the bulky cigarette-type power receptacles from Spruce or elsewhere (commonly with a flange on both sides for screw mounting), so I went to the aviation department at West Marine and found this one by Marinco. As you can see, it mounts with a screw-on ring in the back, so you’ve only got the diameter of the receptacle itself showing in front. There is an optional front flange if you want to use it. It also has a nice-sealing cap, being a marine product . . .
I think it was $17.99 at my local West Marine. You landlubbers will have to go on their web site, if interested.

Stein sells a really nice one for less than that, I think. It has a metal back ring that screws on. Very nice to work with (the receptacle and, as everybody already knows, Stein).

I also didn’t care for any aviation 12V receptacle I could source and the best looking one I could find was on one a 2008 Honda (CRV). Most newer Honda’s used the same receptacle with a rectangular spring loaded cover plate and a nice 12V embossed on the face plate. I think I paid $20.00 each delivered from an online automotive supply house.
Sorry no photos as I am traveling.

Funny that a cigarette lighter defines a standard. Sort of like the 4 feet 8.5 inches of a railroad track....

Are most of the parts plastic on that power receptacle? Thanks.
