What I'm trying to do is make an addon (or really atm just edit elvui directly; addon to come later) to move the DataTexts and Buff/Config button to the outside of the carbonite map instead of the minimap.

I think it should be as simple as changing the relevant Minimap to use the appropriate NX frame but I tried NXMap1 but it says its a nil value.

Here's the relevant codeblock from ElvUI:

function LO:CreateMinimapPanels()
	local lminipanel = CreateFrame('Frame', 'LeftMiniPanel', Minimap)
	lminipanel:Point('TOPLEFT', Minimap, 'BOTTOMLEFT', -E.Border, (E.PixelMode and 0 or -3))
	lminipanel:Point('BOTTOMRIGHT', Minimap, 'BOTTOM', -E.Spacing, -((E.PixelMode and 0 or 3) + PANEL_HEIGHT))
	lminipanel:SetTemplate(E.db.datatexts.panelTransparency and 'Transparent' or 'Default', true)
	E:GetModule('DataTexts'):RegisterPanel(lminipanel, 1, 'ANCHOR_BOTTOMLEFT', lminipanel:GetWidth() * 2, -4)
	
	local rminipanel = CreateFrame('Frame', 'RightMiniPanel', Minimap)
	rminipanel:Point('TOPRIGHT', Minimap, 'BOTTOMRIGHT', E.Border, (E.PixelMode and 0 or -3))
	rminipanel:Point('BOTTOMLEFT', lminipanel, 'BOTTOMRIGHT', (E.PixelMode and -1 or 1), 0)
	rminipanel:SetTemplate(E.db.datatexts.panelTransparency and 'Transparent' or 'Default', true)
	E:GetModule('DataTexts'):RegisterPanel(rminipanel, 1, 'ANCHOR_BOTTOM', 0, -4)
	
	if E.db.datatexts.minimapPanels then
		LeftMiniPanel:Show()
		RightMiniPanel:Show()
	else
		LeftMiniPanel:Hide()
		RightMiniPanel:Hide()
	end
	
	local configtoggle = CreateFrame('Button', 'ElvConfigToggle', Minimap)
	configtoggle:Point('TOPLEFT', rminipanel, 'TOPRIGHT', (E.PixelMode and -1 or 1), 0)
	configtoggle:Point('BOTTOMLEFT', rminipanel, 'BOTTOMRIGHT', (E.PixelMode and -1 or 1), 0)
	configtoggle:RegisterForClicks('AnyUp')
	configtoggle:Width(E.ConsolidatedBuffsWidth)
	configtoggle:SetTemplate(E.db.datatexts.panelTransparency and 'Transparent' or 'Default', true)
	configtoggle.text = configtoggle:CreateFontString(nil, 'OVERLAY')
	configtoggle.text:FontTemplate()
	configtoggle.text:SetText('C')
	configtoggle.text:SetPoint('CENTER')
	configtoggle.text:SetJustifyH('CENTER')
	configtoggle:SetScript('OnClick', function(self, btn) 
		if btn == 'LeftButton' then
			E:ToggleConfig()
		else
			E:BGStats()
		end
	end)
	configtoggle:SetScript('OnEnter', function(self)
		GameTooltip:SetOwner(self, 'ANCHOR_BOTTOMRIGHT', 0, -4)
		GameTooltip:ClearLines()
		GameTooltip:AddDoubleLine(L['Left Click:'], L['Toggle Configuration'], 1, 1, 1)
		
		if E.db.datatexts.battleground then
			GameTooltip:AddDoubleLine(L['Right Click:'], L['Show BG Texts'], 1, 1, 1)	
		end
		GameTooltip:Show()
	end)
	configtoggle:SetScript('OnLeave', function(self)
		GameTooltip:Hide()
	end)
end
