Good advice I got from Huw a while back:

Put an ammeter inbetween the negative battery post and terminal. Current
with the car off should read >small< (Mine is ~250mA, but I have some
known shorts)

Then start pulling fuses. When the current level drops, you've found a
circuit with a short (or small normal drain, like the clock..)
