Hello, 

I know this is probably a stupid idea and question but is it possible to install a rear boot fuse board?

If it is possible I want to install TPMS and an anti dazzling mirror, unless all this can be done without a rear fuse board?

I look forward to seeing the comments, 
Thank you, 
Callum. W.

To install rear fuse board would mean replacing the whole loom from engine bay to rear of car.

These can be done without rear board though.

Hello Rusty, 

Thank you for the reply back, 

That sounds like one big task hahaha
What is the best way to add them to the car without the rear fuse board? 

I look forward to seeing your reply, 
Thank you,

Ok so for auto dimming have a look first you may find the power is already up in the roof, if not piggy back fuse or take up an empty slot in the fuse-board.

As for TPMS you can install a piggy back fuse or take up an empty slot in the glove-box fuse board.

It's becoming more common to come across the Astra with no rear board, yet they still leave the factory with TPMS, heated seats, dimming mirror etc, the most annoying part is there is no wiring information on TIS to cover cars without a rear board.

Please note TPMS will require a VCI code.
