Get a voltmeter in series on the positive cable, then start pulling fuses one by one - have you tried that yet?

yup. many times and with different meters. what i cannot figure out is that the current draw is well within limits.

to cause the kind of drain im seeing (a drop of around 0.2 - 0.25V per day) i'd need a current draw of around 30-50 times what the meter is reading.

ive also tried a new battery, unplugging things inside etc

the only thing ive got is if pull fuse 7 from the main box it stops.
and fuse 7 powers the secondary box.

So now you head to the secondary box and repeat, leaving fuse 7 in place

Does the car have aftermarket alarm system?
