    How did you get your power wire through your firewall?

    I've looked and looked for a unused hole to put my power wire for my amp through. I cant seem to find one. Where is there a blank hole? How did you do yours?

    I drilled a whole on the drivers side. But CHAD said you can run it through an existing hole on the passengers side for the fog lights.

    1) you go to the DIY section.
    2) read the sticky
    3) click "OEM accessory install instructions" (http://ephatch.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43246)
    4) check the instructions for either 04 fog lights or just regular foglights.
    04's go thru passenger side. 02-03 go thru driver's side.

    I found a grommet, cut it, and pushed it through.

    Came out behind my glovebox.

    All chassis have the hole predrilled and has a colored plastic film type disc over the hole. The hole is not on the firewall, it is on the side just forward of the hood release.

    Still cant find anything.
    I did find like a grommet by the clutch peddle, It doesn't do anywhere, and I can't see whats on the other side of it.

    I looked on both the driver side and passenger side and cant find anything.

    You need to remove the drivers side kick panel to see it. It is easy to find.

    its up by the hood release. its like 1.5" white/clear-ish plastic

    then, you have to remove some of the fender lining. you'll see the wire when you put it thru the hole.

    Just look on the firewall on the passenger side there is a grommet about inch in dia. It is the wires for the ECU ect.ect. just pull the grommet back and push the wire through. Once you take out your glove box you will see it can't miss it. It is easy to find and access.
