Plaster. I swapped a fused spur box for a.double socket jobby with a couple of usb sockets. I was expecting plasterboard but was faced with brick and half inch of plaster that was hard as concrete. By the time I had chiselled through it, the hole wasn't exactly rectangular any more.

Fill it to below full with polyfilla then finish it off with that special finishing filler. You might even be able to sort of paint it on wiv a brush. And be prepared for a feck load of sanding back, refilling etc.
I had to cut a foot square of plasterboard out when moving a rad not long ago, in our noo kitchen. There wasn't much to attach the new bit of plasterboard to. Even with a special wide plasterer's filling trowel thing it took ages and I know it still isn't quite right though no one else seems to be able to see it! At least it is only at about calf height, in a corner.
Anyway, if you can plaster with the new box in place, obvs not the socket, maybe one of them would help.
Like this one.

Best of luck, Typical of a job that you think will take 20 mins tops and your'e still at it three days later, what with waiting for things to go off. AND you are leaning over the work top to do it and getting back ache.:(:(:(
 
My ctek charger comes with its own connectors.. think i might chop them off and put something better on!!
Make it easier to move the charger around, plus it gets warm so it's obviously rubbish
I use their little Traffic-light tell-tale that connects to the battery that has their quick-connector so I can plug the charger onto either car.
On the Rangie I can fish the tell-tale out from between the bars of the radiator shroud to check the battery state and then connect there. I don't even have to open the bonnet. :)
