Default Accessory 12V Power Socket in "Boot", XK/R

Switched, unswitched 12V power and ground are conveniently available in the "boot" or "trunk" of our XKs and XKRs immediately adjacent to the left tail light.
Typically a white or black plastic plug secured adjacent to a sensor bracket, it is unused and awaits your creative application (back-up camera, etc).
Brown wire: unswitched 12V protected by F10 (10A). Fuse in the RSJB
White w/Red wire: switched 12V protected by F23 (10A). Fuse in the FSJB
Black: Ground, secured to the body nearby
Fuse values and numbers are as noted for 2010/11 models but should be typical for all XK/Rs.
