Ah okay, I think I follow now. In which case, kindly do post your findings as I would most definitely be interested in a clean way to do this!

I was thinking even neater might be to find some kind of relay seat that the relays fit into and wiring those in permanently so that you can change the relay if you ever needed to?

Where is this central convenience unit you speak of Del?
I recall from working with the compressor relay that there were at least two free/empty relay 'seats' there, however that's at the front passenger footwell hence probably not the most useful location for this. However I agree,it would be a very neat job if done that way.  In fact I think I have a spare relay which I bought from the stealers As a backup for when I was dealing with the compressor! New project scope agreed!

Delboy, Share your findings mate.
Was toying with the idea of doing a plug in play loom. I'm with you. Solder it or use plugs, sod all that scotchlok crap. Its not a 1990 Nova. The free relay slots is a good idea but that makes the mod a bit more permanent and requires more work than a plug in play loom?

Indeed Scott if it were a relay slot from the car then it would be a bit permanent, it could easily made up with plugs like I said earlier but with a relay carrier so if the relay failed it could be easily swapped.
Spent some time last night looking at etka and elsa and think for the sake of speed and convenience the mid will be best placed I'm the battery compartment as that's where the central convenience unit is. Putting it there means larger plugs with more wires but like I said they are cheap. I'll keep you posted

Is there any relay holders near the battery?
The boot lid seems easier. More space to work and easier access to the plug. Unless I'm missing something?

Due to recent work, I've had enough of that side of the car.
But you're right.

I had ago at this yesterday and failed.
I was kind of rushing to do it between rain showers. I've decided to do it via the switch. Mainly because I got the needed plugs and cable to do it. I followed what jza said and connect the Green wire to 86, ground to 85. This caused the boot to closed. I used 2 and 3 from the switch plug. Reading on he said pins 2 and 3 from the switch should go to 30 and 87. So I put pins 1 and 4 to 86 and 85 and nothing happened. I was wet and gave up. I'll have another look later.
