Doohickey

[Cleotis99]

I don't know what I'm looking for. I want a plug that I can put into an existing NAV light socket so that I can wire lights on my boat and plug them directly into the socket.

Any idea of what motor you own ?

That's not a doohickey, that's a doo dad. I'm thinking "we need a photo". At least on quite old nav light I had used a "then somewhat standard" automotive general purpose trailer light / etc plug, round, 2 prong

Or maybe cut off both ends, or the boat end, and buy one or two more modern 2 wire flat connectors. Either replace the whole thing with the new flat, + one more to connect to your accessories, or else replace the boat end with the new, then take a pigtail wire and splice it to the old connector, so you have new--power supply----to new at navlight pigtail---to original connector. Lots of ways to do this, another would be to splice in a connector and Y it off so that the nav light is not disturbed

I’m hoping to add a led dancing light flex pole to the back with the white nav light on top. Still looking for that, but the ones I’ve found don’t fit into the nav light port on the stern. I did find one, but they don’t sell it anymore.

Ayuh,..... Welcome Aboard,...... Just wire in a typical "Power Port" nearby, 'n use that, or wire a 2 pole connector to the light's circuit nearby, 'n use it,.....
