Genesis Offroad 12V Power Outlet Installation

The more and more I use my truck, whether that is for truck camping, roadside assistance or just hanging out on the tailgate, I realize the need for an auxiliary power outlet.

Sitting there on the tailgate with my daughter the other day, she asked me if I have a battery pack because her phone was almost dead. I thought to myself, that would really be nice if I had power back here to plug into. How about roadside assistance services like tire repair.

I carry a portable air compressor for just that and have had to use it on a few occasions to help others. The compressor runs off a 12V plug. Either I have to plug it into the outlet inside my truck or the outlet inside the vehicle of the person I’m helping.

Either way, it’s kind of a pain. It would be really nice to just plug it into an outlet in the bed of the truck since that is where the compressor is anyway.

I began to search on Youtube to see how others were installing these outlets in their truck beds. Most of the videos are DIY-type projects. Although I don’t have a problem getting the needed parts and piecing them together, I continued my search.

Mentioning it to fellow Gear Bunker owner Erik, he mentioned Genesis Offroad. I went to their website and wouldn’t you know it, they have a universal 12V power outlet kit! The kit comes preassembled.

All you have to do is run the wire from the outlet location to the vehicle battery. Check it out!
