12v aux. outlet

I am interested in adding a 12v outlet for gps/ accessories on my bike, a '93 cbr1000f. Has anyone done this with the outlet up front somewhere? Thanks!

Buy the plug socket that has a waterprof cover on it.
Plenty of spots to mont it.

It's a marine connector - weatherproof.

It does take ciggy adapters - BUT it is actually also design to take a sepicifc adapter that twist locks in so it doesn't come out when you ride - I will eventually be putting my electric waistcoat on one of the locking adapters - I'll find the link.

I also have it wired to a fused relay block which means it is only live when the ignition is on
