Worked a treat, I got a 7.5v diode just I case the battery was a little weak from not starting it, and it's all working as I need it to, thanks again to PAULDF ;-)

Now you need to be very careful with this, if you get it wrong your ECU will register a fault and you will need software to reset the ECU or take it to the dealer.
I would use a new LED and wire it to the 12v main beam circuit.

OK I didn't read page 2.
My dash board light up like an Xmas tree when I tried to rewire an LED.
