Can I just put an add-a-fuse in one of the these?

I'm looking to add a direct wire setup for my new radar detector, and it seems I have about 3 or 4 empty fuse locations in the trunk. Could I just use these? Anyone know if these are live?

Yes, you can. I used the standard add-a-fuse with no issue. I checked every fuse in the front glovebox and in the rear trunk, only one turned off immediately when you shut off the car. But I have a 650, it looks like your trunk fuses are different so you have a 645? Your fuse layout is different.

Regardless, if you find a fuse that works for you, then you have to run the wire up to the front. There is a spot on the side of the seat that passes through to the cabin, a wire loom already routes through there.
