Ok technically wrong forum but i need the coverage ive just fitted a knocklink to my STiV & have placed the display in the right hand side off the dash, question is on a STi there are 2 looms that are sat behind were the fog light switch would have been, do any off these looms have a permanent live with the ignition switched on?? if so what colour is it, just trying to avoid ripping out the centre console to find a live thats all,

cheers

Put your tongue on each wire, and see if you get a nice shock.

If not, buy an electrical tester.

About £5 from Maplin for the "cheap screwdriver style with light type".

I have taken my gauge lives from the stereo switched feed.
This is easy to access and there is enough room to fit an in-line fuse.
Just need a couple of feet of cable, and easily tied-in with other looms under the steering wheel.
