Van-Plug produces concealed electric hook-up systems designed to integrate 240V power and solar connections directly behind a vehicle’s original factory badge. The concept originated from a common problem in camper conversions and van builds, where standard external power inlets require cutting into outer body panels or mounting bulky sockets that disrupt clean exterior lines.
Created by Lee Worth and Paul Munn, Van-Plug focuses on developing practical upgrades that look like original factory equipment. Instead of relying on heavy bodywork modifications or surface adhesives, the hidden socket mechanism bolts into existing vehicle mounting points. When closed, the assembly forms a protective seal against rain, dirt, and road debris while keeping the power inlet completely out of sight.
The company offers model-specific setups tailored to popular van platforms across the market. The current lineup includes dedicated fittings for the Volkswagen Transporter and Crafter, Ford Transit and Transit Custom, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Fiat Ducato, Maxus Deliver 9, and Vauxhall Vivaro. Each unit matches the precise dimensions and badge layout of the target chassis.
Beyond individual off-grid builds and weekend camper projects, Van-Plug supplies professional vehicle converters looking for refined power integration options. The company continues to expand its catalog with new vehicle-specific components, maintaining a focus on durable hardware, subtle integration, and straightforward installation.
