I want to add the nato socket…., what is your opinion on this? Is it doable?

I would just connect it straight to my battery I think. Let me know your thoughts…

At least in the US, for the vast majority of instances, an Anderson SB350 seems to be more worthwhile and widely utilized, especially if you're going through the hassle to install it from scratch.

Of course, if you have a particular use for a NATO plug, ignore everything I wrote.

As for the part numbers, I'd imagine all you'd need is the NATO socket itself and any related mounting bracket, as the wiring would be bespoke to your application. If it'll be wired direct to the battery, don't forget to add a fuse in-line rated for the wire.

This is not a bad idea, but that round hole for the NATO socket is begging to be filled in with the correct plug!

I could easily make a jumper from nato style to Anderson
