NATO 12 Pin Trailer Plug to a NAS 90?

I have a new to me Sankey that was freshly re-wired and I would hate mess with it. Any thoughts on how to connect a female 12 pin connector to my ‘97 NAS 90? Also, I need a source for a female plug if this is possible.

Thanks,

Chuck

One thing I saw in the details was "Note: the adapter you're looking at works great, but I would not attach it directly to your vehicle. It's heavy and can fall out of the socket. Strap it to your trailer and use a 4 wire extension cable from there to your vehicle"

Just a heads up.

As a follow up to this, the "civilian vehicle flat 4 to military trailer 12 PIN adapter" linked to above works. I plug it into the four way that is on my 90 and then connect it to the NATO socket on my Sankey. It is heavy, especially with the NATO plug on the trailer side, so all of that "kit" stays firmly attached to the trailer and then the lighter 4-way wiring (like an AB kit or similar) is attached to it and has some slack in it for turning, etc... Kind of an expensive option but works.
