>DO-  
>DO-  What else can you use the accessory plug other than heated clothing?
>DO-  
>DO-  Can the plug be used for anything that works in a cigarette lighter plug in?

Yes, provided that you:

1.  Make an adapter using a BMW plug and a cigarette lighter socket joined
together with a couple of bits of wire.  Remember to get the polarity right
- - the centre pin is +ve.

or 

2. If the wire on the appliance has a cigarette lighter plug on it that has
NO voltage reduction/increase circuitry in it then cut that plug off and
wire up a BMW plug to the appliance as without the red insert it can be
used on the bike and with the red insert it can be used in a car cigarette
lighter socket.
