Ahhh, I should have added that my charger is a big honkin' off-board transformer. I don't want to put in in the car in order to save weight. But it does look like a J1772 port has 5 conductors. This might fit the bill. -Chris

Have you considered putting a J1772 inlet maybe where the gas cap is? There is some electronics to install behind it - a relay and a pilot signal. I suspect the hardware is for sale somewhere as I see the inlet ports are readily available for about $90 and then you could use any standard charge cable.
