I assume you mean the square/round socket in the back of the boot. 

I didn't look that hard but didn't seem to get very far finding one, so made my own from various fog light bridging plugs. I've since seen the same plug/socket in the near side tail light section of an Astra G.  (this is for the square PRE face lift cars)

I have a trailer loom (with correct square socket for behind the boot trim with wiring) on back order with Vauxhalls.

Six weeks and still waiting.

I don't think it will ever arrive so I have also started to collect the loop-in/bridging sockets from scappies.

Also found an indentical socket in the relay box in the engine bay. It has the larger pins but no smaller pins..

may cut connector of and put a wire block in

I think that is a plan.

Might do the same.

wasn't factory fitted then, you'd have a trailer check control too if it had been. Most dealers will send their new cars to a local towbars r us for towbars to be fitted.
