Haha. I've only had the car 2.5 years......

Don't really tend to open the boot when it's dark so it wasn't a big thing for me. Originally I thought it just didn't have a boot light so assumed it was a typical Vauxhall oversight. It's only when I saw the thread about adding a 2nd boot light that I decided to see if I did in fact have a boot light. I did find it but assumed the bulb was blown as it didn't work. Only when I removed the bulb holder did I spot that the wiring/connector was missing.....
Just saw Sheppys photos again of him fitting the oversized bulb holder. Specifically the bit where he cut away the carpet to make room for the bigger bulb holder. I can see where the wiring comes from................. I have a cunning plan.
HA. Success!! I cut away some of carpet making the hole bigger. Managed to find the connector which was jammed between two bits of trim. Wiggled it free and connected the bulb. Not sure how the connector was out of place but probably related to the guys who fitted the aftermarket parking sensors. Thanks Big Dave..
