thanks! i'm at work wanted to do a quick scan but coudln't resist the tempatation

so its pin 7 on the middle black plug X300 that i'm after - which is the signal that connects to the LED on the PDC switch right? (I already have Ground from somewhere else instead of pin 6 you have mentioned i hope that is ok..)

everything else is already wired in my case. my camera is also permanently powered when the car is 'awake' like you have (can't remember what i tapped onto though..)

before getting my hands dirty i will also get myself a micro relay as well and replace mine.

cheers mate
