And the answer is:
- take metal coathanger, unwind straighten out and chop off bits as needed - kneel down with face in drivers footwell - look left relatively close to the where you'd have your knees ans there is a small gap - poke coathanger in and gently probe to see if you can span the central section. - coathanger doesn't emerge. Spend some time looking for it - conclude there is a lot of hanger in there and it should be visible really - look down side of pass console and there it is, prodding up against a piece of trim - back to pass footwell, remove two screws holding panel with little light unit and remove panel - hanger now visible - tape wire to side of hanger in driver's side and slowly pull through From there you can do what you like obviously. I used a piggy back fuse on the cabin 12v (switched) fuse to wire in an additional12v socket so i can 1 charge my phone (satnav on google maps) whilst in cradle in the lower right corner of screen and 2 power my gps speed camera detector which also lives on drivers side.
