Where does everyone feed their 4ga from the eng bay into the cabin?

I think where the a/c pipes go is the best bet. abs is damn close to it.

apparently theres a rubber gorment behind the glovebox which is big enough to fit 0ga wire through
has a plastic clip over the hole tho, but can be easily removed
the other place is where the two pipes go through the firewall just above where the clutch pedal would be
use a stanley knife and carefully cut a slot big enough to fit the wire through

If you have a 3rd gen go for the grommet on the passenger side.

Ok just did it. it had a plastic cup over the grommet. Pretty sure that hole is the eng loom.

Took the airbox out and my purge canister. cut a slit into the cover of the loom from the eng bay side, from the interior shoved the 4ga through.

4ga goes along the loom, where it meets the abs it is cable tied, and then follows the loom under the fuse box and into the battery box. All stealth, until u open the batt box.

Just gotta work out the nicest way to mount the fuse holder in the batt box now.

The easiest ( for me ) is from the engine bay to the interior starting it off with a coat hanger or a small screwdriver. Just be careful not to tear or unplug any wires that are going through the grommet ( thats how basham might have killed his abs )

Where does everyone earth their amp? i was thinkign of using the bolt that holds the back seat down. haven't taken any of the side trim off the boot yet to see if there is anything good there to use yet.
