12V power supply in the boot?

[J-Bear]

Hi!

I'm currently installing a tow bar on my 2014 5D sportback and I need a constant or ignition switched 12v supply for the electronics. I was planing on using the 12V cigarette lighter socket, but unfortunately my car isn't equipped with one...

However I did find something that looks like a 12V screw terminal. Does anyone know what it is?

Hi! I just ran into the same issue as you. Did you ever try it and did it work? I don't want to pull a cable all the way to the battery.

If you want you can link the 2 fog lights onto one wire. So one wire in the boot lid section taking right fog supply to left.
And use the other fog supply as 12V on ignition. Wires coMe up from left boot side panel so you can tap there
You will have to do some light channel coding though
