Just wondered if anyone knows if there’s a permanent 12V feed in the boot area (needs to be constant 12V feed while alarmed)

Thanks

Why not run a wire up from the battery, easy enough task.

If you have or ever have had a CD autochanger there will be a permanent +ve & -ve behind the carpet card above the fuel tank.

If you have an electric arial it will have a permanent live.

Live to interior light, pick it up just before wiring goes into the hood hoop?

Not as standard it isn't.

It's on the wiring diagram, wonder how many actually had one?

It's electric in that it's amplified (signal amplifier) rather than electrically retracable/extendable ..

Thanks yes know I can run from battery in footwell and there was feed (Purple wire) in the hood hoop section but wasn’t sure if it was permanent or alarm and or door opening activated , just that if there was a feed in boot saved a lot of time running wires ! And always worth asking before stripping things out !

Thanks
