looking for batt+ wire in kick pannel

is there a power wire running in the driver side kick pannel? If so, what collor is it. I'm trying to install a power seat, and I want the least possible wiring.

Run new wires. You can hide them. You shouldn't splice into existing power cables, especially with a load as great the power seats. You will either melt wires or blow fuses as the ampere load exceeds the capabilites of the circuit.

Ccan't catch me...I'm the gingerbread man!

You have two options for connection to the fuse box for accessory or always on (like most power seats)

remove your fuse cover,
on the left bank count top to bottom,
the first two are taken and marked,
on mine the third and fourth are both unused and unmarked
the one closest to the top is always on,
the 4th one down is only on with accessory.

try that for power wire with large size fork connector plugging into both spades slots of the one you choose and good luck

best advice is to check each one with light tester prior to taking my estimation for gospel, as I know one is always and the other is accessory but I forget my own name 2 out of 3 times...
