Locator light logic / power source?

Dear all,
I would like to add a set of under car floor LED kit to my C32, which their on/off logic will controlled by the locator light logic. Of course I cannot put the led wiring directly to the fog lamp power source, this will made the floor led on during the flog lamp turn on.

So here I have a question, how I can find the locator lamp power source ? Is it from the front or rear SAM ? Which relay or fuse ? Any hints?

On my old c220, I added the brabus puddle lamps to my side skirts. I tapped into the light switch in the door. Every time I opened the door the light would come on and if I turned on the interior lights the lights would come on. You could always wire it to the puddle light in the door.

The front lights come from the front SAM and the rear lights come from the rear SAM. The rear SAM is the master of ATA logic and it tells the lights to turn on.

BUMP

im interested in this too for my mirror puddle lights. I want them tapped into the locator / convenience / surround lighting. I want them only on when I press unlock and never on again.

I dont want to wire them to any inside lights or door lights because I want to be able to turn on the indoor lights without causing those to go on.

I specifically need to access the module or whatever that controls this. PLEASE HELP
