I have a CTEK MUS 4.3, a slightly higher amp unit than the one Chevy offers as an option with the C7.

I would like a connector that allows me to charge via the port in the passenger side of the hatchback. The MUS didn’t come with one and CTEK has not responded to an email.

I’d prefer the hatchback port to the under the hood connections for routine use.

Any connectors out there that I can get that mate with the current wiring harness?

I bought the same charger through amazon but went with a slightly different Cigarette plug. Either one will work.
