Firewall hole for running wires
yea the hole in the firewall in the engine bay on the passenger side should be plenty big enough...I only found it kind hard to get it from behind the glove box...

how did you secure your wire around the strut tower so it's in a safe place? do have any pictures, i had my wire running through the fender but i didn't like the look of it hangin out in the door. thanx

What i did was take a coat hanger, and attach it to my 4ga wire so i could poke it through the passenger side grommet.
IT WAS A B****.
But after you get it through, it works like a wet dream.
and it looks really nice because it's all hidden.

Just ran my wiring today. Nothing huge, just 8ga for a 200w Infinity Basslink. I wanted a little more bottom end, and didn't want to sacrifice a lot of trunk space.
Anyway, I ran my power through the large hole mitsutech talks about. If you remove the fender liner, you'll see a small (1inch) round grommet down near the bottom. That's not the one you want.
If you go straight up about a foot from the round one, you find a 3x2inch oval grommet with some wires already through it. That's the one you want. Poking a hole with a screwdriver didn't work so well for me (screwdriver would go through, but not the wire), so I stabbed it in an X-shape with a thin pocketknife. Wire went right through then.
Ran the wire under the rocker panel scuff plate, it fit in the little plastic clips I found in there as if it belonged there.
I'll get some pics up eventually.Thanks, mitsutech. Without your advice, I would never have noticed that big hole there, and would probably have ended up running the wire all the way over to the passenger side grommet. This was SO much easier.
This relates to Evo's, but it has to be similar.
