Do a search for standard iso.

But off the top of my head
pin layout
12345
678910

The locking clip to lock the iso connector in is nearest the 5/10 end

Pin 1 or 6 is the live and 1 or 6 is the earth.
If you tell me the colours I'll tell you which is which.

I think pin 3 or 4 is the +/- but bare in mind on some french crap the switched ignition stays on for a while after the key is switched off.
Possibly a white or yellow wire.
