Hey - can anyone offer advice on how to do this?

I have a Garmin 296 which I want to wire into my aircraft power supply (it will never leave the aircraft) and also into my PFD. I dont know where to get any connectors purpose-built, and I dont have the ones which came with the GPS except the wall power plug.

I reckon I can disect and connect the wall power plug (removing the step-down transformer) directly to the 12V system and I think it'll work. Any thoughts?

I also want to know where you can get a plug to fit their output, for connecting to my avionics (Dynon D100). Anyone know where?

Thanks
