Yes, but if you look at the above picture's (3rd one)you can see the backside of the plug housing, I made a bracket and insulated clamp to hold the plug in place. I have an automotive fabrication shop so it's easy for me, but if I were to do it again I'd simply order the pre-made one. I just didn't want to wait the day or two for delivery.

I just got the same charger and am working on an onboard install myself. I am going to build my own plate out of an RXV choke air intake adapter in which I cut off the back and am modifying to fit the plug I got. It was cheap and pretty close to what I needed. I will have to drill some holes in it to run the screws but it should be pretty clean and sturdy.

I'm looking at doing this on a 2019 RXV Elite Lithium. Can't find out how to get around the charge receptical safety switch. Any help is appreciated.

Here is my finished plug I fabricated. I am still working on the wiring. Everything is a mess because I am not sure how much room I will have with the new battery tray and 6 batteries installed. I also will have to move all of my electronics wiring around to accommodate the Lester.

That includes a radio, full neon treatment, backup battery and relay for radio, dc 360w converter and a fuse block.

I am kind of anal about my wires and like everything to be clean, zip tied, concealed, and protected.

Similar to what you did I am using a piece of sheet metal to build a faux floor for the Lester. Under it will be al of my concealed wiring. Above it will be the Lester, my radio battery, converter, and fuse block.

I digress..... here are a couple of pictures of the plug. I like it. It’s solid, uses the original hardware, and blends in pretty well.

Looks very clean.

just a quick wiring question about onboard charging with the lester summit 2 on a 2018 RXV:
my plan was to replace the RXV charging receptacle on My RXV with a male 120 outlet like OttyFields did. the wires from the cart to the charging receptacle are Black, Grey, Red, and Blue(smaller gauge). It looks like to me I can remove the RXV charging receptacle and wire the grey and red to the lester "+" terminal, the Black Wire to the lester "-" terminal and the blue wire to the "lockout 2" terminal Is that correct? Thanks

Dont forget the 10k resistor

I am definitely not an electronic expert so forgive my ignorance. where does the 10k resistor need to be?

Shows you in the book for the lester....
