If the adapter has long leads then they may be all that is needed when the plug is removed.Otherwise a 22 AWG or lower AWG set of leads should be acquired. Speaker wire works very well for this application.

A wood dowel with a 13mm to 14mm (1/2") diameter is needed and also several thumbtacks.

I found both the dowel (USP code: 041426027356) and brass thumbtacks (USP code: 027755015240) at Wal-Mart.
