I'm looking to add heated grips, and maybe a phone charging port to my '03 XB9R. The later models have the necessary connectors where the factory heated grip kit is plug and play, whereas mine needs to be wired to a power source.

In the search for what's already there, as I want to make the install as pro as possible, I found an unused grey connector under the dash. A quick test shows that two of the pins are powered when the ignition is on, and not powered when the ignition is off. This seems like an aux power connector that I've seen referenced when searching, but those searches also said the older XB's didn't have the aux power connector.

Obviously this is powered, and switched, which is handy. But, does anybody know what it is? For example, can it supply enough power to run heated grips and a phone charger? Or, should I use this to connect a relay to switch a power line that goes directly to the battery?

Thanks.

First pic shows the general area. It's the grey connector just behind the high beam/right headlight.
