If weather & motivation (love that expression!) were on your side I guess this is too late (put it down to the time difference & having only just got back into work, where I have internet access) but yes, we are talking about the space on the left, as you describe. (I deliberately avoided reference to "driver's side" - as mine is RHD.
I have a similar problem with the tow package which appears to be O.E. but dealer installed, presumably to fit U.K. spec. hitch & trailer socket BUT there are are 2 diistictly after-market looking relays (albeit professionally installed) under the hood, the wiring for which I've not been able to work out and a wiring which seems to run the length of the vehicle, alongside the brake lines.
However, IF I have correctly understood what I've read on this forum over the last 12 months, there is a multi-pin connector to make the electrics side of a tow pack intallation a "plug'n'play" job, by whoever or whenever it is fitted.
