Radio should have both a permanent live and a switchable live I believe! |

It is probably easier to take the 12v from the green wire that goes to the cig lighter '08 RRS TDV8

Is the green wire you mentioned accessible from behind the radio or not? Really nothing in that area?

It is not easy to use a multimeter. I have tried everything on the cables to the radio. The inlets of the cable are very thin so you need to use a small paperclip or something. A bad connection is easily made.

You can maybe use a drawing pin through the wires to find a good 12v

As you say, there's no ignition 12V supply at the head unit.
