So I have a '96 suburban LT, I often use this as a place to sleep on weekends spent out doing whatever and so far it has worked pretty well, have a nice foam pad back there and its reasonably comfortable.
I want to add some further functionality to that effect, and my first thought is to wire in a 12v socket to the power wires on the 2 rear windows so that they can be rolled up and down using an external jump pack or 12v battery
I have a couple questions that hopefully someone can answer to that regard
1. what color are the wires (at the point they enter the pillar) that run power to the rear left and rear right window switch
2. If I wire it up in this way, would the 12v socket then also function as a power source during the times the ignition is turned on?
Next I wanted to address the point of egress, while it is not exactly terrible exiting through the rear passenger doors, it is also by no means easy, I want to be able to wire up a handle or even something as simple as a pull wire to the rear barn door in order to open it from the inside, anyone have any input on what would be the best option here?
Any other thoughts on additions that would benefit the "rough camper" type setup? I already have a small inverter but have thought of a battery bank with a full sine inverter to run a heated pad for the cold months
Any help is appreciated, thanks
