Where's the wiring for the p. outlet in boot?

Where's the wiring for the power outlet in boot? I have a 2003 MCS and would like to install an outlet in the hole after I remove the plastic blank. I could not find the wiring harness, it must be tucked up pretty good.

Does not have one. I had an 2003 and I had to wire a power outlet to the fuse box.

For the 03s only, there is no wiring for the outlet in the boot. The hole is there, with a cap, just no power.

It is right there !

That really large RED cable running inside the acess cover is you battery cable ...
I made an incision into the cable, inserted a wire (with fuse in line) with a flat spade connector into the slot, sealed it with silicone.
Grounded a wire to one of the many good grounds avaliable.

Good to go ...
