Has anyone installed a 12V outlet for accessories on a Hawkeye yet? If so, where and how did you do it.

i just did tonight on my sons it kinda easy i put it on the left side just above the dry box lid.
take your gas cap off and then the center panel where your gas tank is at .
do this to get a beter look just up under your handle bars.
i took a 1 inch hole saw and drilled right in the side then i trimed as needed with a dermal tool
be carefull when drilling not to go to deep just tought the plastic.

Any pics Coolhandnts?

Did you wire straight to the battery with an inline fuse, or something else?

I appreciate it!

I installed my 12 volt outlet inside the front storage on the right side,ran my Postive wire to the Battery and grounded the frame. Simple and it works.

I have my winch contactor in the right side box already, so I suppose I could put the outlet there. Rickey, did you put in an inline fuse?

Which way did you put it in? any clearance issues?

I used fuselink wire, You really dont have to use a fuse, but to be safe and not get any reverse surge from something i went ahead and use fuselink wire as well.
