Default 2-prong adapter on sportsman 400

what is the proper name of the 2 prong power source going to my battery (and on most sportsmans?) I would like to find an adapter to connect to that to then connect a regular cigarette lighter adapter for my GPS. Or do they make usb to 2-prongs? i started to search online but without the name of it it came up with odd results.

One comes with every Polaris. It should be in your tool kit.

It used to come with all of them that had this connector on the battery. It was always in the tool kit.

Don't know about the newer machines.

it was an option on most as an accessory for the rear. they were like $18 back in 2000. because i wanted one on my 00 sp. it didnt have one. so i made one for the 2000 and my 2008.
