Sorry to revive an old thread, but has anyone successfully installed the illuminated ring part? I pulled mine out but discovered that it's not lighting up properly after reinstalling the outlet into the sleeve and plugging it all in. No blown fuses or anything; could it be because the wiring harness only goes to two of the three prongs in the outlet? If anyone has any thoughts, I'd be keen to hear, a little stuck for now.
Damn; was hoping that wouldn't be the case but makes sense :\ Is there any way to tap it off the wire for the 12v itself? Was desperately trying to avoid having to take the center console apart haha
That's super useful, thank you! I think we're rapidly approaching the limit of my electric engineering knowledge
but good to keep in the back pocket at least. The part was only $25 so even if there's no easy way to light it it's not the end of the world. If anyone does attempt it though would be interested to hear how it goes!

It’s like putting lipstick on a pig, but it helps
Well sir, you have won
Ha, yeah, I'd never put that amount of work into a socket plug but it is a part I manufacture for custom bikes with integrated generator lights. It's a rotary switch that switches the lights on and off. I have a ton of prototypes and spares, and it occurred to me one day that it could make a nice replacement for that plastic thing.
Haven't burned my fingers yet!
