The u13 never came with interior boot light? if there was assuming its 12v just tap the CCFL power from its light socket.
To retro fit one you'll need a door switch (from any old car or jaycar) mount that where its triggered by the boot opening.
Then put it in positive series with your CCFL power and run the other end to a constant 12v source.
Should be pretty easy.
