Sorry, I had to shut down the domain and server where those images were hosted. The economy has not been kind to me these past few years. I have some of the narratives posted on a free WordPress site though:

many thank's mate
however the image are not on the wordpress either
english is not my natural language, still trying to understand where you grabbed the cable
"It’s tucked WAY up in there, elbow deep"

i looked with a lamp, but could not find it... i can see the sockets near the bulbs, but nothing up there

if you have a hint, i take it

thks again

Sorry, that wire is there somewhere. In this thread people reported finding it in different places, from behind the air conditioning unit, to being tucked up above the upper plastic trims.

For example: "fought the rear panel for about 30 mins ( the connector was caught between the rear panel and rear AC unit), got my hand up there and viola! I now have an outlet in the cargo area."

Yes, the purple and black is the power for the accessory socket.

It's been years since I did mine, but I think it was solid purple and solid black. Anyone else remember?

EDIT:
Today is your lucky day. I just got my network attached storage drive to work, and was able to find those old photos. Now, let's see I can upload some of them. It is the purple and green wire with the orange colored connector according to my photos

I've been trying to find this purple green cable with orange connector behind the quarter panel today but no luck. I tried finding it by putting my hand behind the panels, even removed the speaker surroundings but nothing.

below what I can see looking into the panel.
