Install power outlet in cargo bay of MY06 wagon?

[Ric]

The Legacy service manual shows there is wiring for a power outlet in the boot, and there is an obvious position to install it inside the flap that opens on the left.

Has anyone done this?
What's the easiest way to get the trim off?
Did you use the intended location (which requires you to open the flap to get at), or did you install the socket elsewhere?

correct me if I'm wrong maybe i just need to go to bed but didn't you post a thread in the walkthroughs answering your own question???

Here is a writeup on accessing the wiring for the optional 12V receptacle in the rear of a US Legacy wagon, and also the trailer wiring.

Australian Libertys have the 12V plug in the same location, but the plug with the trailer signals is on the other side of the car.

If anyone wants to take some photos of an Australian model, please contact me.

I've just done the same on my wife's Suzuki, and it was a doddle (because they provide a small removable panel which gives you access without having to remove the entire trim.)
