Source for Lighter Sockets

(Not electronics really, more Electrical)
I have a plan to install several car lighter type sockets around the boat, to accommodate the numerous devices that run from these; I aim to add suitable plugs to the few gizmos that are not yet so equipped to increase flexibility. My problem is the cost of the bulkhead type of socket http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=99505, £5.00 from Maplin, compared to only £1.50 for the inline type http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?Mod ... 55&doy=1m3. Can anyone put me onto a cheaper source of the bulkhead sort of socket? I feel £2 would be reasonable, and since I intend to fit around 10 of them, it would make a significant difference.
Thanks,
Derek
