i wired 2 12" tubes into the interior light in there, so the neons only come on when the boot is open, hope this helps.

they should jus wire straight in to the positive and negative of the interior light, i got an auto electrician to do mine just to be safe but it seemed easy enough to do.

Do it yourself man. . . . . just put the red on the neon to black, and the black on the neon to brown (Vauxhall and their dodgy fucking wiring. . . )

Easy to do with the boot light, or just tap a live from somewhere else and fit a switch.

just tap into the boot light as said above
then it will come on when the boots open!
ive also switched mine with a switch up front so i can turn it on with the boot shut!

You will have a boot light - If not, the wiring will still be behind the left hand side plastic cover - near where your rear speakers are!! Wires run across the top of the bottom bit of the boot lining - so if needed, you could tap a live from their (Ensure its the black live. . .as the other live is for your rear lights, and im sure u dont want it on when the boot is shut. lol)
If stuck, use a multimeter to check their is no PD across the 2 wires you are going to tap to when the boot is shut, but that their is when its open!

Some corsas that have no boot light are also fitted with no boot trigger switch
