599 trickle charger

[Big Tau]

Ok, took delivery of the 599 yesterday & it's sitting tucked up warmly in the garage until the roads thaw out ! Problem is I can't find where the socket is for the trickle charger. I'm sure it's somewhere obvious but I can't see it for looking,
Any guidance much appreciated, thanks.

Cool, thanks. Now back to the dealer for the right charger , he's given me the 430 one :-(

Should be a D shaped connector from memory

Which would be different to a 430 one, or indeed any other C Tek, Accumate, or Airflow battery conditioner how?

The connector to the car, it doesn't go into the cigarette lighter, it's a specific socket.

I have not seen it but I am sure it's a standard Tyco or Molex.

It just grieves me to see people spending £140 from a dealer for what it a £40 battery conditioner as on the Lambo thread the other day.

It comes with the car, not an extra, I guess you pay enough anyway ;-)

Forget the trickle charger, get some pics up!

Damning admission of poor power management in the electrical archetecure if they give you one with the car as standard!

Anyway, as someone else said, lets see the beast!

I'll get some piccies tonight before i take it out, probably the cleanest it will be for the next month or so!

Cheers.
