Where does the cabling go from the socket ?  You should be able to see the back of it.

It's not standard...  but then on a 90 of that vintage... it can be hard to say what "standard" means ;-)

It's like I said in the other thread, it's an auxillary socket that they use in trucks.

Plugging DIN plugs into!  

Most 'commercial' accessories, beacons, inspection lights etc etc come with a DIN plug rather than a cigar plug on the end of them.

See "Accessory plug & socket" near the bottom of the page:
