Flush panel mount sockets?

Does anyone know a place on the web that sells sturdy flush panel mount cigarette lighter sockets?

Car Toys says that if I can find 4 of them, they can build me a panel for them and wire it in with fuses to the dash, so I can have 4 instead of 1.

I tried buying a 1-to-4 adapter but the thing is so poorly fused that it wouldn't even run my air cleaner from the inverter in the back seat. So Car Toys said they can do it with heavy wiring and put a heavy fuse inline too.

Those 12 volt sockets are sold at most auto parts stores. You can try amazon.com and search "12 volt receptacle" or try basspro.com and do the same search.

Here I was searching Google for cigarette lighter sockets and not finding them. :)

Here's one source for a known good part:

I've used these and they work as advertised. The other ones in their book (I have the "PSA" Parts Service and Accessories 2004 copy) : 735-2669 and two weatherproof ones for use in truck beds - 782-2236 and 782-1773

Their website sucks rocks for looking things up if they aren't for a particular car - but if you get a copy of a paper catalog to have the part numbers on hand, they all pop up with the description and "list price", which is subject to discounts. Like the AAA SoCal "Show your Card and Save" program that'll get you 8% or 10% off.
