firewall plugs
I just put fog lights on my car and when i went to run the wires back to the switch in the car i realized that there were no plugs or holes in the firewall. I tried to drill a hole but the metal it much too thick and theres not too much room on the drivers side for a drill. anybody find a plug or somthin? i need some ideas
I drilled through my Firewall with minimal problems. this is what i did: Remove the driver seat, a hell of alot more room to work with. Place the drill at an angle. I chose the area right across the fuse box. Place the drill there and Start drilling, Put as much pressure as you can so that the drill doesn't start to slip. If your unsure have a friend go under the hood an place their hand on the firewall an start tapping the area. You'll get a better understanding on where the drill will end up.
this was my first time drilling through my firewall an it was pretty easy. Not sure if this is a good explanation but i gave it a shot. Jus be careful you dun wanna screw up anything.
The whole thig is about evenly distributed force

There is one plug you guys! It's hidden, but it's there. On the passenger side of the engine compartment, BEHIND the right strut tower, in the back corner (just about where the bottom right corner of the windshield is), there is a rubber plug. If you pull it out, it goes right into the passenger footwell area.
there's also rumored to be one on the drivers side that's used primarily for the hood release cable. It's supposed to be accesible if you remove the plastic skid plates and move the wheel well plastic some... don't remember who posted this originally.
Since my car's being painted, I haven't had a chance to look...

yes ther is an access point in the lower A pillar where the hood latch release cable runs inside through just remove the wheel (makes for better access) and the plastic inner fender liner, look up 
and you will see the cable and a wiring harness running to the inside of the car.

Go to sears, buy a cobalt bit...put it in a good drill...no walmart special here and drill away...those cobalt bits hum through that wall not a problem....done in 15 seconds or less....
firewall plug
If you look all the way down o the passenger side of thefirewall there is a plug to run the wires through. When y run the wires through open the glove box and look toward the firewall in the back. Yo will see the wires coming through and you can reach them with your hand to pull the through.
