06 Polo S No boot/hatch light????!!!! - Sooty
Model Polo S 1.4 TD Oct 06

I knew a hatch/boot light was not an original fitment when I bought it.. But it seems a paradox that you get heated and remote door mirros but no light in the boot/hatch?

It is 'standard' on the SE bt colud not get one at the time.. just upgraded an S instead to near SE spec.

However, the S model must be wired for the light fitting even if it is not fitted..

Anyone fitted this light aftermarket? Also I'm not positive about this but does the SE have a 12V cigar lighter type socket too.. wolud be very useful for me.. charging photo equipment batteries etc while travelling.

I used to be a mechanic years ago, so although things have changed a lot since I'm confident in doing most work inc electrics properly (using quality connectors if necessary) with proper wiring advice.

Any advice welcome.

Yes it is strange. I bought SWMBO a Polo Twist 2 years ago and paid extra for the interior light pack, which gave front and rear roof lights, map light and vanity mirror lights but no boot light!!
