Title: Fulvia under dashboard plug in socket? Post by: chriswgawne on 03 August, 2018, 07:49:56 AM For the last 45 years I have always thought how useful the under dashboard socket on S1 Fulvias (?) could be...…...if only I could find out what sort of plug plugged into it!
Can anyone help please. My Mum and Dad had a VW Beetle in the early 60s which also had a socket and I think I recall you could buy a rechargeable torch to plug into this from your local dealer.

Title: Re: Fulvia under dashboard plug in socket? Post by: chriswgawne on 03 August, 2018, 08:31:08 AM Well I am blowed…..and so glad I finally brought it up.
Is the Lancia torch rechargeable Tim? And where did you get it if you don't mind me asking? Chris Title: Re: Fulvia under dashboard plug in socket? Post by: lancialulu on 03 August, 2018, 09:00:40 AM Yes it was rechargeable but after 50 years it needs a rebuild (winter project)! I found it in Italy in 2016 at a Lancia meet - cost a bomb!

Explains why I could not find a compatible bulb! What does the charging end of the torch look like? Maurice Title: Re: Fulvia under dashboard plug in socket? Post by: lancialulu on 03 August, 2018, 09:20:55 AM Body slides to reveal....
