I have looked fairly well, but I don't see anything that I could use that is already there. I would rather not drill a hole if I don't have to. Does anyone have a pic of where they ran theirs through? PLEASE ASAP. Driving me nuts.

Yes, there is a large rubber grommet where wires pass through the firewall into the cabin. I know that somewhere on the forums there is a guide to this with pictures becuase I used it when I ran my amp power wire, but Im at work right now so I don't have the link. When I get home I will try to find it and post again.

Ok. I found what I was looking for, but there is a reason you couldn't find it, I don't believe I found it on this forum.

I used these pictures to figure out how to get 10 gauge power wire through there, and it was pretty frustrating, but ya just need some patience and it shouldn't be a problem.

If you are planning on running these wires to your trunk, there is a great way to do so without having to take off any panels, (other than the one by the kick plate) let me know if this is what you're planning on doing and I will explain in more detail.
