no it's not behind anything like carpeting....it's a straight thru hole that goes to behind your glovebox. Look behind the passenger strut tower, it's kinda hard to see but just take a flashlight and look from the side because it's small and behind the strut tower but you can fit your hand back there and put through whatever you have to put through...

no.....it's a hole with no cover just a straight thru hole to the inside of you car. Just take your hand and put it behind your passenger strut tower and touch the firewall back there and move around until your finger goes in a hole...it's pretty easy to find

you can go through the firewall by going through the holes with grommet in the glove box. Open the glove box and you will see it.
