Is there an always hot wire in the trunk, if so where is it and what color is it? Installing a 12 disc cd changer and need hot 12 v. for memory and switched 12 v. for power. Switched 12v. from antenna signal amp.

The trunk light power is always hot at the upstream end of the switch. Should be fine for the memory but I wonder if it's got enough fuse for the power and antenna?

Then I would be pulling 12v. memory from the trunk lite and 12v. switched from the antenna signal amp.
Sounds good. The changer pulls 1.o amp max.

No good. Trunk light gets its power from the battery saver relay in the smart junction box. It has no power till the trunk release solenoid activates the latch. The light is ground switched.

Wouldn't hurt to throw in an inline fuse, right?

Roger that.
