12v trunk plug

[latony007]

There is only a 12v plug in the rear of a spyder RT correct (base model)
Is there any reason i can't use this to put one in the front trunk, i assume it has the wires siting there waiting like my rs did? Not that i dont want to pay can am 35$ for a $5 plug but.. i dont lol

The wiring is on the left rear side looking toward the rear of the spyder there should be a rubber plug that you remove and wiring is behind that. I agree I bought one for 5 bucks on eBay

12 v plug

Yep that should work fine.....remember the frunk is removable so be sure where you put it ....it won'r get snagged if you take off the frunk.........and if you don't have Amazon Prime and get free shipping on everything just look on E-bay and choose free shipping first........Mike :thumbup:

TRY THIS

LOOK AT THE TOP LEFT SIDE, WHICH IS THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SPYD3R, AND YOU'LL SEE A 12V ADAPTER... I WIRED IT DIRECTLY TO THE BATTERY.... WORKS LIKE A CHARM.... PS; the bag is hanging from it....

So the wiring is there waiting behind the frunk just like my rs right?

Why did you wire it directly to the battery if the wires are right there waiting for you? You wanted it to remain on when the key was off i am assuming?

Look on the rear frunk wall on the right side facing rear. You should see the round rubber plug Scott half way down

On my 2013 base RT the wires were there behind the rubber plug. You just have to watch and be sure to get the positive and negative plugged on correctly. The rubber boot to cover the plug is probably there also. OK, getting the wires on the plug and the boot over it all is a real b**** of an operation. The wires have right angle spade connectors on them. I found it was easiest to slip the lock nut over the wires, pull the wires through the hole and connect to the plug, and then put the plug through the hole and finagle the lock nut and rubber boot on. It'll be a lot easier to get in there if you take the battery out first. Or, take the frunk off completely. It's a very tight fit back there.

You get full time power to it moving the aux power fuse from F6 to F5, or whatever it is. That has been discussed here a lot in the past.

I WANTED IT LIVE SO I COULD PLUG IN MY SCALA G9 OR MY PHONE WHILE I WAS AT LUNCH....
ALSO IS GOOD IF YOU WANT TO USE A BATTERY TENDER....
