Located down to the right under the steering wheel... This is not actually connected to anything so I will be using it for my musical air horn... Was just wondering what it is actually meant for!

It's a light switch of some description all right. Dosn't look standard mini to me though....

How many terminals has it got on the back?

Ok, well I've now established that it actually works, so it'll be perfect for my air horn... :-

There's normally only one switch (from standard) on that plate, for the rear fog lights. That switch isn't originally on a Mini, so a previous owner probably added it for another set of lights or something.
