Does anyone know where I can find a ignition 12v Live in the BlueGT engine bay? Thought the DRL might be a good shout but apparently they switch of when you indicate!

No they don't... Not unless you have coded them to do so...
But why do you need a 12V Ignition live in the engine bay?

Ah so they dont, read it on another forum and believed it without checking (rain!) They turn off when the auto headlights are on however so no good for me
Need it to test something with a tuning box.

Mine do
il video it later. They turn off when the headlights are on and turn back on if you switch the headlights off. It's really annoying as I can't locate another switched 12v

I'd love to both se the video and the coding to get them to turn completly off when the Xenon is on. Allways thought it was stupid that they just dimmed down.

No problem. Any more ideas for a switch 12v? Guess I could go through the firewall but I really don't want too!

There is a rubber plug you can make a jole in under the left wiper... You can get a wire though there.

Was hoping to avoid any drilling. In my mk5 Golf there were grommets you could use.

This is what I have behind my battery, the engine fuse box. Seems the 6C is a different layout.
