Which socket?
Hey ubp_sanity does your tow sockets look like mine? Which socket would I connect to? I currently use the lower one when I hook up my trailer. Or is the top one used when connecting a trailer with electric brakes?Narpy's Grill Mod, Suspension Rods, Ultra guage, wrangler Goodyear duratracs 265/60/18, new thermostat, diff oils changed, brake switch new, aluminum rack floor, LED driving lights in foglights, rear camera, just need gvif unit, next on list!

Yes, I believe you can connect via the trailer electrics. Grab a suitable 7 pin plug and connect the charger ground and +12v as below.

According to this page there is no permanent 12V available in the North American connectors.
So you cannot use it as a connection to the battery for charging 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

I have the same setup on mine. But it looks like the 12V pin is switched via the ignition.

Good old conflicting information
Grab a meter and check if it is ignition switched or permanent. If permanent then you're set 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

Some NAS 7-pins are battery live, some are switched. The direct-to-battery 12v goes through the trailer module on the NAS LR3 so it either it is switched at the module, or it isn't, depending on how the module is configured. A quick check with DMM would answer the question.
