Fitting DRLS wiring help please.

I have decided to fit some DRL to my e53 X,

Does anyone know of an easy access ignition feed under the bonnet?

Cheers all!

Can you just code the LCM to turn the DRL on?
If it's some kind of LED DRL, I would tap the positive to the ignition-on wire in the ECU. It's been awhile but I think the wire is red-white wire. You need to make sure with a multimeter.
