Should be posted in sound but what they know about the Q45? JK but rather ask here.I'm not trying to drill a hole to be honest so anyways I can get it in.I'll remove the cluster if I have to or remove anything except the dash.Thanks in advance.

just look for unused holes/grommets along the firewall. i would stick to the passenger side so you don't have to cross the engine bay with the wire. all else fails drill a hole and use a nice grommet.

you should eb able to find something. i prefer to drill but there's almost always somewhere to get in whether it be an unused hole or sliding in next to harnesses/lines/etc. i haven't run power wire yet or i'd be of more help.

Hah... i didn't want to drill any holes either so I ran 8 gauge between the fender on the right side....

making it fit through the set of wires through the firewalls was too much work

but I ran 700RMS ..... after the fender its all 4-gauge because thats what i started out with.

I ran it through the firewall by the ECU.Though the rubber that plugs the hole is open a bit now I'm gonna get air through there.Anybody can draw a diagram on how to put it through the bottom of the car?I can't jack mine up it's too low. I can though monday but let me know thanks.
