12v Power In Rear Of Is200?

[blahmartinblah]

I was considering installing a Bluetooth gps receiver in the rear window of my IS200. It would sit on the speaker tray, probably in the centre. It needs a 12V supply. Is there any switched or constant 12V source with easy access in the boot/speaker tray area?

Thanks

boot light supply

how many amperes will the Bluetooth device need... the bootlight can possibly supply around upto 5A.

5A should be plenty!!

I didn't think of the rear lights, good idea thanks. I just hope there is a constant 12V feed there, rather than only present when the lights are turned on. Even so, thats probably sufficient to keep it's internal Battery topped up.

hey Martin,

sorry if we got you a little confused.

Just to confirm I was referring to the courtesy light in the boot, that turns on when you open the boot.

You can find it just under the rear parcel shelf... I believe the earth is "switched" and the power is continuous.

OK, even better :)

Thanks!
