7 Pin Plastic Socket for Vehicles – LG1356

Need a reliable connection for your trailer's road lights? This is it. Our 7-pin plastic socket is the established European standard for 12V towing electrics, providing a secure and compliant link for indicators, brake lights, and tail lamps on a huge range of vehicles.

This is the workhorse of trailer electrics. The LG1356 is a standard 12N type socket, engineered to the ISO 1724 standard that ensures compatibility across the continent. Its tough plastic housing is built to handle life on the back of a vehicle, resisting road spray and daily wear. A simple, proven design you can trust.

It's designed specifically for core road lighting functions. That means your indicators, brake lights, tail lamps, and fog lights are all covered. While newer caravans and commercial trailers are moving to the 13-pin system for reverse lights and auxiliary power, this 7-pin socket remains essential for countless vehicles already in service. It's the practical choice for maintenance and repair jobs.

Wiring is straightforward. We designed it for easy installation. The central pin insert can be removed, giving you clear access to the screw terminals. Each pin is clearly marked, and the design ensures it can only be reassembled the correct way. No guesswork. Just a solid, dependable connection every time.
