I have a T.V. socket of the type seen fixed to skirting boards in the home - no need for it to be weatherproof since it is inside the battery box - the co-ax cable from the back of the socket goes through into the bed box behind with plenty of sealant between the socket and the battery box wall. The cable ends up connected to a flush socket placed near where the T.V. sits which then needs about twelve inches of co-ax lead to connect to the flush socket. This short lead has right angled co-ax connectors to save space.

Hi,

I bought an external socket with an opening lid. It's only about 1 1/2' square and about 1/2' deep. I t came with about 5 mtrs of cable. I mounted it underneath the van and ran the cable up inside to the booster. Works brilliantly. No promlems with the weather as the lid snaps shut. I think I bought it from Jackson's of Old Arley.
