Interior Light (Rear)
I wanted a permanent live in the roof for another light - but i didnt want to run a load of cables and drop the headlining

Whats the best way to get an earth and permanent live? Mike

How much current do you need? You can use the interior light circuit or the towing electrics providing you don't overload anything Smile

I dont have the owing electrics (annoyingly otherwise i would take a live feed)

4 amps is what i want to take

I assume its the purple brown - unless there is another +ve feed in the rear? Mike

Even though you haven't got a tow bar/trailer socket fitted haven't you still got the multi-plug tucked away behind the lights on the off side rear? The plug to join the plug and play towing electrics along with a positive feed.
