    I think there is a micro switch inside the boot lock catch thingy in the rear panel, not in the boot lid itself

    Get a multimeter on the bulb contacts and see if you're getting 12v is proably the easiest thing to suggest

    Edit: sorry, just re-read your statement, you've already proved the lamp. My bad. That's what a night shift does to the mind! Haha

    Ok so it turns out the switch is in the lock on the boot. I thought that there was one in the rear boot panel too but couldbt see anything(swear it was there on my old one). I didnt think to check the boot lid, was thinking that maybe it was on when the lights are on!

    Did you get to the bottom of this mate?

    My CF boot lid (with the disgraceful fitment) doesn't disengage my boot light. I've given up trying to get it to fit right so I'm thinking adjusting or repositioning the switch is my only option.

    The switch was stuck so it thought the boot was always shut.
