Default Deutsch connector

I am looking to add an LED fog lamps on a 2012 Electra Glide. I want to use the accessory switch on the inner fairing. Under the seat is the 4 pin Deutsch connector for the accessory switch. Looking on internet, there are three types of Deutsch's connector; DT, DTM and DTP connector. Which type connector do I need; DT, DTM or DTP? Thanks!

This is what I used, plus the cost is good. this is a kit for 4 pin DT instead of buying pieces Separately.

I think there's a "Y" connector you can use also, allows you to have a spare connection for later.

No matter where you buy the connectors from, be sure to get extra contacts, the kits only give you exactly what you need, no mistakes factored in.....

The part numbers you need are:

Receptacle DT04-4P
Wedgelock WH4
Contact 1060-16-0122 (order extras)

Plug DT06-4S
Wedgelock W4S
Contact 1062-16-0122 (order extras)
