Search with from the Firefox URL bar with bing.com.AU only
Hello, I would like to search from the Firefox URL bar with Bing.com.AU Australia only is there a way of doing this please?
Things I have tried
1) Searched Firefox addons and can not see a Bing.com.au search engine.
2) I have looked in "about:config"-used search term "search" and noticed that "browser.search.CountyCode" is already set to "AU" and "browser.search.region" is also already set to "AU" but when I do a search it only shows .com results.

Thanks for user input, but I think we can close this now.

Hi, have you tried going to the site first, then adding it to your search engine list? See Add or remove a search engine in Firefox.
If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
That is fine for the default search engines, which I already have installed ie Bing.com Google.com Yahoo.com but what I would like is Bing.com.AU and there does not appear to be one in the Mozilla Addons. I am really looking for a Firefox setting solution as described in my first post. :)

"the-edmeister" - Many thanks but is there a way of seeing the code on those addons? I like to reduce the risk of possible malware by knowing what the addon is doing and the changes it makes.
I would really like to know how I could change FIrefox through the settings or about:config.
