I need to fit a magnetic trickle charger connection to the number plate lamp area of rear bumper looks like might be able to gain access through reversing lamp aperture does this just pop out?. Regards.

 

My Continental GT is an 08 model.

I bought a boxed as new genuine Bentley charger/conditioner off e bay for £100.

I was disappointed to discover that the round disc on the end of the conditioner bore no resemblance to the charging socket in the boot.

The one I had bought was for the later GT models which had a magnetic charging point on the outside of the rear bumper.

All was not lost however as I sourced to correct fittings from these people

These are the parts you need, two pins and the plastic plug and clamp.

Hi, thanks for the reply , I have purchased the same magnetic connection set, but my question was about fitting. How does the reversing lamp come out to gain access and fit the magnetic receiver to the bumper cover ,Regards. Dave.
