Yes, it's in the cubby opposite the vibration damper, same place as the coupes.

I'ts actually a dumb idea - how do you get into the boot space if the battery is disconnected and the seat back are up?

I believe there is a point to attach a live jumper cable in the engine bay somewhere but my cab has a battery conditioner connected ALL the time when it's not in daily use...

'bout the best you could do is connect power to the starter.....but be careful not to actually start the car! (or have both rear wheels in the air in case you do.

Other than that....pull out a licence plate light & pop the trunk that way?

Ridiculous as it sounds it's worth more than the car. Not mine unfortunately - a friend trades in them and my coupe is just a place to store that one. He bought it as part of a pair with 6EX which is now sold. I wish he still had that one to run on the cabrio.

Yes, I read a lot fo British car mags and I'm always amazed at the prices asked for various license plates in the back. I've heard of some going for tens of thousands of pounds - incredible!

£10k is the asking price for 9EX.

Keep the plate, I'd rather have the car.
