water leaks in near kick panels...any ideas?

[canadianc-10]

ok i knew water leaked in my interior for awhile, but putting in new carpet and cant figure out where its coming from, short of pulling off fenders. i can see water drip from behind the brace that the pass side of the dash bolts to, checked grommets that i can see and they look good as do the top fender bolts, poured bucket of water on cowl area without getting any on windsheild and leaks pretty good still, so windsheild is ruled out...
