i got this from ray ray


find the grommet hole by your left strut tower in the engine bay. when you run the cable thru there it ends up in the front left wheel fender well. to operate in this area it may be easier to remove the wheel altogether. remove the splash guard. you'll see the rubber boot that you can poke a hole thru to access the interior cabin. it'll pop out by your dead pedal underneath the dash. from there you can run the power cable to wherever you want.

make sure you protect your cable properly to avoid fraying. use wire loom in exposed areas and grommets where the wire goes thru any sharp edged holes.
it sounds easy and a good. i still havent done it but this is the way i am going to do it.

thanks for the tip... but i found away from the battery into the fender/wheelwell and from there went into the hole by the door hing on the driver side. the hole was plenty big enough to fit the 4 awg power cable.
i just poked a hole through the rubber making sure not to damage any wires and thats it. it a pretty nice find, leads right to the side kick panel and under the carpet.

Cool. I'm glad it all worked out.

It wasn't as hard as it sounded at first, was it? :wink:
