Also I put a light bulb in there and the immobiliser goes crazy….must have a short somewhere?
Could these clips work;

…..if your immobiliser is also an alarm and is linked to the boot switch that turns that light on (likely) so that if you had set the alarm and someone opens the boot it goes off - then you need to make sure there is a diode in the wire from the immobiliser to that switch to stop it messing with the ground signal that triggers said alarm.
Trace the wire back to the boot push switch that activates that light- have a look and you might have a extra wire running to it from the front of the car or wherever your immobiliser / alarm is - if you do then try putting a diode on the end and see if that sorts your problem out. A simple cheap IN4007 should work.
