Help! Just swapped my battery in my X75d to a Lithium, but all these guides show a 12v post under the rear passenger seat. I've got captain's chairs back there, anyone know if there's another 12v spot in the rear for my amp wire? Running it all the way to the frunk sounds like a nightmare!
 
Afaik, that's the only port. That 12v port is powered by a DC-DC converter. It reduces the power of the high-voltage battery pack to 12 volts, which can then be used to power accessories.

You can try checking under the trunk floor by the subwoofer area, some Model X setups have a 12v there. If it is not, running to the frunk might be your best option.

Captain’s chairs are great until you’re hunting for a 12V post, right? I’d start by checking the rear cargo area or near the liftgate motor, Tesla sometimes hides 12V access points there. It’s worth checking near the side panels or underneath the cargo area in the rear, as Tesla sometimes relocates the 12V access points in different configurations. If you’re still stuck, you might want to consider an inline fuse tap from an existing powered circuit in the rear. Don’t give up, there’s got to be a workaround that doesn’t involve running all the way to the frunk!
