For about $15 you can get a multimeter ( you can spend a lot more if you want to, but a cheap one will do everything you are likely to need).
Make sure you have your radio code, because you may wind up cutting the power before you're done. Go through your fuse box 1 fuse at a time, substituting the meter for the fuse, with the battery connected and everything off. Except for a very small current drain on the fuse with the radio memory on it, you should get zero current. The circuit which shows current will give you a place to start checking for things like trunk lights, glove compartment lights, under-hood lights, or shorts of some kind.
If you don't have it yet, now is the time to get the factory wiring manual for your car! You not only get the circuit diagrams and wire colors, but the locations of components and major connectors--it'll save you a bundle of time and $ when you start doing audio or lighting mods, or when the car starts showing signs of degenerating wiring. Let us know what you find, and how you find it.
