3 pin plug in boot
« on: 13 October 2013, 18:20 »
When swapping my rear lights over I noticed this plug, it's on the offside near the boot light. Am I right in thinking it's probably for a 12v socket? Or is it for something else?

Yeah, I know that some models came with the socket, it'd be handy if it is as I'll be able to use it to power the led lights for my air ride boot build.

Yeah mine has the 12v socket in the boot, I'll have a look later to see if that's what attaches to it :smiley:

Got a multimeter on it today, it's a perm live which suggests 12v socket :afro:
