permanent live

Hi, New to the VW world! I’ve seen some posts about a factory fitted perm live being available under the drivers seat in some 6.1 vans. We have just purchased a 6.1 shuttle and will be fitting a split charge, is this true or will we need to run a new cable from the engine battery? thanks!

Looking and weighing up the best options for tv in the van. Ideally looking for the standard freeview channels. There are the 12v TVs or some laptops/tablets with apps. Use this thread to show us what exactly you use and where/how it's set up. I'm talking flipdown, swing bracket, tablets on...

Playing with my new van today I was surprised to find that both of the 12v sockets in the dash were live even when the ignition is switched off and the key removed - is this normal?
