12 Volts out let Camry XSE 2021
 
Hi all, I'm new here, what can I do or get to have an extra 12 Volts out let that can be install in the trunk (tronc)?
One in the car with 120 Watts, I have 2 items that would need 12 volts .

There trunk may not have any wiring that has a constant 12V source. The power sources to the trunk are intermittent such as for brake, tail and trunk lights.
.
You will need to run a wire from the battery or a fuse socket in a fuse box to the trunk. There are devices that can plug into a fuse socket to replace a fuse which will tap off power to a wire then allow the original fuse to plug into the device. You can run wire along the drivers side channel next to the other wiring. The trim pulls out to access. There are youtube videos on running wires to the trunk for say speakers.

The type of power outlet for this wire will need to be determined by your needs, this being a female cigarette lighter or such. There are dual outlet socket plugs.

120 watts is 12 amps. You will need a fuse larger then this such as 15 amp. Typically Toyota doesn't have extra wiring at the fuse box meaning there may be empty fuse sockets in the fuse box but they will have no wiring to them. If you do tap off a fuse keep in mind that fuse may have another larger fuse ahead of it. Here you could tap off the POWER fuse located in the fuse box which goes to the power outlet inside the car.
