i ran into that same problem, and im stuck there too. mainly because i didnt have enough time to finish it up. i believe u could just run it along with the other wires going through there? it seemed a bit tight but you might have to untape the factory wires and run it with that. check it out, see if its the same.

I don't remember exactly how I did it on my camry, But on the new Tacoma I had to disconnect that rubber piece from the door and the car, then run the wire through, then reattach the rubber to the door and car.

It's not sealed, there is a rubber gromet about 1" in diameter what u gotta do is pull it outa the hole to give u some flexibility and then u run your wires through it. the other ends of the holes are in the kick panel area and insdie the door behind the speaker.

Did you disconnect the rubber hose from inbetween the door and the car? Try that, then it'll make it easier to feed the wire through, then reconnect it.

Yeah man, yank that shit out!! You don't need to remove it, just disconnect it from the door.

Do this, get a flathead screwdriver and between the rubber part and the metal, seperate it with the screwdriver. You might have to push it in twords the wires then it should come out.
