Read through the entire thread but I don’t see where I can connect the red wire to draw power. I’ve seen many YT videos that suggest the bolt I’ve highlighted in yellow in the passenger fuse box is the power terminal since hybrids have their 12v battery under the back seat. I’m adding a photo of my wiring harness for visual.

he picture is they immediate after the following text:


14g-16g insulated female spade crimped, heat shrink for extra protection. It's a perfect and very snug fit onto the unused 30-50A spades. They are all 12v constant hot sources. Then folded the tail with inline fuse into one open bay space, while tucking the flex down into the box and using a zip tie through the hang tab slit to secure the relay from being able to bounce/move/rub around inside the F&R box. If I need to service, I just clip the zip tie to lift it higher and out.
