    Default VS Firewall

    Hey fellas I need to feed some wires through from the engine bay to the interior where is the best place to feed wires through preferably near the drivers side of the engine bay? It would be the best to get them through the rubber gromets already in there but which one?

    Cheers
    Chris

    If you don't have aircon that one is huge and comes out on the left side of the drivers footwell.

    There's a hole slightly bigger than 4 gauge on the passenger side. Comes out just below the carpet line behind the glovebox. Don't know what option should fill this hole

    Lol who doesn't have air con. everyone has air con hahahah.


    If it's an auto (which 99% are), look where the clutch would go and there should be a grommet there.

    Pop it out, stick a hole in it where your new wires go through, feed it through and pop it back in

    nah thats too far from the centre console. there seems to be a bit of rubber just behind the master brake cylinder and nothing goes through there would i be able to drill a hole in the rubber there?

    Lol, as in the actual clutch pedal, where your foot would go. Its easiest to see from the engine bay side, I remember staring at it for ages going wtf is it......

    It's pretty easy to run the wiring through that behind the stereo surround and down to the centre console.

    - Locate clutch grommet
    - Remove stereo surround
    - Remove centre console (partially at least, firewall end)
    - Run wire, make sure you leave enough length
    - Replace centre console, stereo surround, clutch grommet.
    - Party.
