T27 estate 12v power in boot

[rob42]

hi all

I am thinking of installing a 12v socket in the rear of my 2012 estate and thought id see if anyone has done it before, and ideas on paths to run the wires.

IL be taking power form the fuse box and sending it back.

 

Cheers

hi, I did I used something similar to link below, my car was wired for a towbar before my ownership, which includes a fused permit live from fuse box to the boot, I tapped into that with a inline fuse and grounded it in the boot. an enclosure was made and its in use no issues in the last 2 years or so.
