Hi there
do you know if there is a multipin plug in the boot. It should be on the near side under the floor, close to the side of the car. I have a 1997 model and there is a plug do there. If it does have a plug, you can just wiring the socket in to that with out any relay passing. If you let me know I will look at the wiring on mine and try to remeber how I did it.
