Basic rule is don't run anything through the socket in the boot that uses over 12v, otherwise you'll fry the cable and maybe start a fire! I expect the light is running off the same feed as for the boot socket and the tail lights, though don't quote me on that.

Same here mate, i was gonna put them under the 2 black plastic bits that support the back self, but the 2 little side doors that are the access to the light bulbs get in the way  :undecided:
