Have 2006 Fleetwood Evolution 'neon'. Have aux fan/lite that plugs into o/head lite fixture - looks similar to 'RCA' jack. As quarters are really tight inside x/small PUP would like to make fan/lite portable to use outdoors. Can't find right kind of adapter to go to reg 12v(cig.liter)receptical. Anyone out there with one of these 'beasties' have any ideas. Dealer is no help at all. THANKS, K

Go to your local Radio Shack store and tell them what you want to do and they should be able to fix you up. You will need an inline 1/4" mono phone jack, a cigarette lighter plug, and some lamp cord. You may have to do a bit of soldering.

rrupert, Thanks that is what I thought - but bet your RadioShack is a tad brighter than mine. Ask just the scenario you described, the feller mumbled and shuffled and told me I better go to the dealer as were special plugs and lamps!!! & I might blow up the RV. How about that???? Think I'll try a different store. THANKS again, K

K, Here is the 1/4 inch momo phone jack that you need.

I'm assuming you want to connect this to a cigarette lighter plug which you would then plug into a cigarette lighter receptacle.

Maddog348,

I wouldn't go to that Radio Shack for anything. They must have hired the boss's idiot son.

That combo should serve you well.
