ACC Power W211 - E500

Does anyone know if there an ACC Power line/cable in the trunk area near the battery? I have a W211 - E500.

I am trying to hook up the XMRadio Commander 12Volt wire and it also needs an ACC connection as well.

Most XM installations I've seen on the W211 ("hacked in" by your average stereo shop) have tapped into the wiring in the left side of the trunk. There's a whole bunch of things over there including the audio gateway; you should be able to find all of circuits 15, 30 and 58 there.

I was going to put the 12v cable to one of the wires in the distribution block in the trunk on the right side near the rear battery. The ground I would just put it under one of the nuts and tighten it down. Now the other thing I am trying to do is that the connector that goes into the xm box also requires an acc line....Where can i get that line/cable? If there is a acc line in the trunk - where abouts is it? On the left side someplace? Where abouts? I don't really want to start poking around and mess something up. I do not have command or keyless go on this vehicle.
Any help or diagrams/pics would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx............
