Default 12volt power supply

I have a flat batery on my cosworth, AGAIN, i dont use it very often but it needs to stay alarmed as its kept on the stereet. The trouble is its flat and i have delocked the car all round, i can gain entry again but would like a remote12v supply so i can plug a battery in to a secreted socket mayb to power it back up if it happens again. I have seen it on show cars, redline feature cars i think, max power project pinky RS2000 etc, any idea where i might get one from and fitted?

i used to run a couple of wires from the battery and tuck them up inside the arch liner, insulated obviously,then when needed just pull em out and connect to a spare battery
