4th Generation Big Three Camry Upgrade

Anyone do The Big Three upgrade on their Camry (Gen. 4 preferred)? I have a XLE V6 and I can't find a good existing hole in my firewall to use and was wondering where I might be able to find one. I had a hard time getting to my firewall and gave up on taking out my entire dash, like I wanted. Anyway, I can't seem to find an existing hole to run my power wire through. Any hints?

There's a thread on the audio/visual forum about this already.

Cool

You can go through either wheel fender, or the massive wiring harness that's easily accessible that feeds the ECU. (unbolt two 10mm bolts, then shove the wire throuhg. it comes out behind the glovebox)

Hehe.. I need to reroute my power wire.. It's running under my Gen 4 all the way to the back and through some hole in the trunk. And I plan on doing the Big 3 one of these days too

I ran 0 Gauge through my firewall underbneath my dash on the drivers side... of course i already had some hack job from whoever had the car before me had put the aftermarket car alarm wires right through a big hole that they drilled and decided not to put a grommet or anything to seal it.. so i used the exsisting hole, made it bigger and sealed it with a tight rubber surrounding after i was done.

Remove the front drivers side wheel well liner. The grommet is against the firewall (theres already a bundle of wires running through it) and it comes out underneath the dash.

It looks like you took out the whole front ds fender. I tried to take out the liner, but the 3 or 4 screw things toward that bottom wouldn't come off. Do I just need to rip them off or something?

Yes, I did. However you don't need to remove the fender.

The screws should come out.
