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.

Is your charger 110/220 volt compatible? 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.
