Curator's pick: GCP1 15 Amp AC Port Plug with 16-Inch Extension Cord
This is the gold standard for port plugs because the gasket actually seals against the bodywork, preventing water intrusion that kills your charger over time. Just make sure you use a 2-inch hole saw for a clean fit; a sloppy cut will make the mounting screws strip out the plastic.
⚠ Worth knowing: The 16-inch integrated cord on the GCP1 is short, often requiring you to mount your charger within a tight radius of the port. If your onboard charger is mounted way back in the chassis, you'll need an additional heavy-duty extension or a different mounting location to avoid tension on the plug.

What to know
The installation requires drilling into your golf cart's body, which may be daunting for first-time DIYers and should be done carefully.
While providing tools makes installation easier, the initial combined cost of the components and tools is higher than just a simple plug-in charger.
How to use this together
1
Prepare the Mounting Location
First, select a suitable, flat location on your EZGO RXV for the GCP1 AC Port Plug. Ensure there's enough clearance behind for the plug and wiring. Before drilling, double-check that no existing wires or components will be damaged. This careful preparation prevents costly mistakes.
2
Drill and Install the Port Plug
Using the 18V LXT Cordless 1/2 Inch Driver-Drill and the Step Drill Bit (specifically the 1-3/8 inch size), carefully create the mounting hole for the GCP1 15 Amp AC Port Plug. Drill slowly and steadily to ensure a clean, circular cut. Once the hole is made, fit the port plug into place and secure it using the Stainless Steel Self-Tapping Screws.
3
Seal and Wire the Charger
Apply the Black Silicone RTV Sealant around the edges of the installed GCP1 15 Amp AC Port Plug to create a watertight seal, protecting against moisture. Next, mount the Genius GEN5X1 1-Bank 5-Amp On-Board Battery Charger inside the golf cart and wire it according to the manufacturer's instructions, connecting it to the port plug and the golf cart’s battery. Ensure all electrical connections are secure and properly insulated to prevent shorts.
