2nd Generation Firewall Trouble (Hooking up subs)

I am trying to hook up subs and I cant seem to find a hole in the inside nor outside through firewall. I wanna hook up subs and trying to find a hole for the wire to go through. But I cant seem to find anything at all. It is a 1990 Camry. We searched and searched and didnt find a thing. Can you please help. Any suggestions to look or could anyone take a pic of where they ran there sub wire through the firewall or describe where it is. Please and Thanks for any help.

left fender well.... on top there's ahole where there's already 2 small wires going in... take off the fender well plastic cover... you'll see an orange grommet where your hood switch goes into the car.. run the wire long with that...and it'll end up inside the car near the fuses.. that's how i did it on my car

Yup, I got 0 gauge through that grommet with no problems.
