Hi beam +ve wire location needed

Hi guys
I am installing a garage remote into my 86. Remote is all wired up and will either close or open my garage door when I flash my Hi beams.
Remote is ready, but I cannot find a +ve wire for the hi beams =(
I don't want to cut into hi beams wire in the actual headlight assembly, and was thinking that its just somewhere in a fuse box =( obviously not =(

Can someone please help me to identify a positive wire that is active when you flash your hi beams?

Thanks

Take a look at the wiring diagram (link: "http: / / my - 86 . com/dl/BRZwiring.pdf" - remove the spaces), pages 148-156.

if I understood the diagram, I would not be asking =(
Do you guys know if there is a difference to where the cabling goes for the UK/AU cars?

OK, update
Was too hard to search for the switch wires in the car, so installed it in the engine bay fuse box, getting the power from the Hi beam fuse. So far so good =)

That is the correct location, the high beam fuses get powered by the relay in the fuse box that is next to them.
