    Hi

    I've installed a light bar on my A6 3.2 -05. But I don't know where to take 12V from since the battery is in the trunk and there are no battery points in the engine bay on this car. Is there a good place to borrow it from or do I've to route a cable all the way to the trunk?

    Can I tap into the wire for the low beam?

    Aren’t the battery points also in the front on the passenger side?

    I know there is on most cars but not on this one for some reason. Ground is no problem. Maybe I can take it either from the starter wire or alternator wire?

    There are positive and ground points under the hood on the passenger side, but instead I'd just tap into a fuse on one of the panels in the cabin on driver or passenger side.

    When I had my '05 there were no pos and neg points under the hood. Weirdly seems like they skipped it that year.
