Where is the hole in the firewall?

Hey,

Tomorrow I'm going to be installing my new amp and sub, but I can't seem to locate the hole in the firewall to pass my power wire to the battery. I figure its somewhere on the driver side but I can't find it, does anybody know where it is?

This is on a gen 3 camry.

Thanks

it should be over the gas pedal, its hard to see since it is sealed with a rubber groment so use a flashlight.

So just above the gas pedal, how do you recommend running it towards the back? like under the plastic clips near the door?

Remove driver side front wheel and the plastic liner in the wheel well. You should see a rubber thing with a big bundle of wires running through it.

I found the hole above the gas pedal. It had a rubber gromet thing so I just cut it a little bit and forced the wire through. It was really hard to do seeing that its so far up there but I finally got it. For once I was wishing I was a midget... lol

Thanks for the help, the wire is run
