My XKR is laid up for the winter (roads allready being salted over here),
I have recently purchased a Tonneau cover from Mina Gallery and it should arrive later this week (un-painted). The trunk lid has a very deep mark in the paint and has been an eye sore since I owned the car, so along with the tonneau cover i will get this painted at the same time. Has anybody on the Forum ever removed the Trunk lid? The internal wiring looks to be for the remote lock & license plate lamps, does anybody know if there is a plug and socket on the end of the wiring loom from the lid to the main loom?
Thanks for your help here....TS

 

The boot lid harness has a connector at the bottom right of the lid as you look at it from behind the car with the boot open. You need to strip back the lining to get access, the connector is actually tucked into the hole that the cable goes into but it can easily be pulled out and disconnected.



To get to the other end I pulled the boot liner on the back surface forwards and the side surface downwards, you then need to disconnect this connector, the part of the connector attached to the wiring that needs to come out needed to be pulled out with pliers as it has a slide on attachment to the car.



The grommets can then be pulled out and the harness extracted, the holes are bug enough for the connectors to go through.

 

A Million thanks.....RD.
