Default Parasitic draw draining while running. Help

I have a 2000 Honda Civic Ex coupe with a D16z6 swap, the car uses the first notch of the headlights to active the cluster as well. I can drive the car almost all day and when it got dark I switched on the headlights and within about half hour I was dead on the side of the road. I’ve already tried doing a parasitic draw test and I found out that the door lock fuse and ac condenser fan was drawing power away but when I replaced them the door locks still continued to take power so I left it unplugged entirely hoping it would help but no succes. If anyone has any info on a common way people may splice into the ignition that would be great or pictures and diagrams of where wires go so I can correct the cut up mess. I’m mainly looking for the wiring digram for everything around the steering wheel and driver door.
