Is this where the heated loom plugs in?

I've got a 7.5 A in fuse 16, I don't know why, but it has both the terminals to hold the fuse, does that mean my car has got the wire to the accessory socket?

Can anyone suggest how to test if the boot lights are staying on with the boot shut?

I've fitted a couple of looms and can't remember which socket is used, but the plug will only fit into the correct one. In all cases it worked without touching anything else

Seat heating is 13/14. Relay K7 is needed too.
