If you remove the inspection panel on the passenger side trim in the boot you will find a connector already in the loom . There are two wires going into a foam pocket to keep it insulated remove the foam and you have the correct connector for the light unit .
You just need to obtain the light fitting and cut a hole in the panel to fit .
I am about to do mine I just need to cut the trim when I decide where I want it

If you fancy selling the spare one at a sensible price (ie half of 2 of them!), and we can work out how (ebay?), I'll take it from you!

Thanks but I have found sometimes that low cost leds can have a short life so will hang onto the second one as a spare - they will also fit as driver/passenger footwell illumination, so can be handy if one of these fails.
For info I got mine from this Ebay seller with fast delivery and currently selling at £14.24 inc postage for the pair https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133017396125
