Just ground one and then run a wire to the BCM. If it’s not under the panel on the right side of the car, check the left.

The bottom harness in the pic is what you’re looking for under your kick panels.

That makes sense - I had overlooked the switch illumination.

I would really like to source a plug, I am hoping its a JST but I don't know the size. It might become clearer when the switch arrives.

When I was younger you could wander round car scrapyards removing parts you want but these days with health & safety in the UK you cannot do this any more in case a car falls on you.
