12v socket in boot - always ON - HOW?

[columb]

Hi,

Could anyone point me to how-to make an 12v socket in boot which is always ON?
I've seen fuses so it shouldn't be to hard to do.
I was quoted over £200 by MB stealer just for labour...

I'm sure that I can connect one of those splitter somewhere...

Cheers
Chris

I've not bought any of the bits myself but it could easily be wired into a permanent 12v in the boot area I'm sure.

You can buy the proper connectors to clip into the fusebox to make a dedicated supply for the socket.

I've got some......somewhere...

Thanks guys!

The question which I should as is:

Where do I connect those proper connectors to? No idea
I don't have socket in boot hence the question.

And one more thing, it should be always-on as I'm planning to connect freezer from time to time

Is there a rear fusebox, if so the busbar will be permenantly live. Just clip in a contact and add a fuse, then it's Bob's your Uncle and ...

Use the rear SAM for the conenction, it has a main 12v feed which should be capable, failing that use the front fuesbox or go straight off the battery.

wire straight from battery for best amp on the wiring.

all you need for the job is:

A0075458426 : PIN BUSHING : EUR .78 (X2)
A2108200951 : FITTING MOLD : EUR 9.07

+ some wiring from halfords rated up to 30amp or something + an iline fuse up to 30amp....
