Today we are releasing a brand new towbar accessory product, a Euro Trailer Plug Adaptor for connecting 13 pin plug European and British vehicles to New Zealand 7 pin male flat plugs on trailers boats and caravans. i.e. they have a round male 13 pin socket and a flat 7 pin female plug.
This adaptor is a clever, quick and economical way of handling the problem presented by 13 pin euro sockets; the alternative being to replace and rewire the towbar plug on the vehicle concerned. Not only would this probably cost more than one of these Trailer Plug Adaptors, but removing the round plug on vehicles exposes the plugs mounting point and any holes that have been drilled and any cuts that have been made to mount the plug.
There is a bit more to these adaptors than is first apparent. There are some quite clever electronics inside them to handle the step down from 13 to 7 pins. Also, they are wired to the Australian and New Zealand standard and every adaptor is checked on a test rig after assembly.
Our 13 pin adaptors will work with LED lights in both instances, but there are a very small number of vehicles which require a special LED Adaptor that we can supply for $209..95
Megatyre is selling these adaptors at our Browns Bay shop for $79.95 each inc gst or we can post one to you in New Zealand for $88.00 inc gst, postage and handling.
