Installing a system. Where did you guys run your Power Wire?! We've been searching for a hole, but can't find one large enough to run the 2 guage.

Help, asap

Take off the wiper cowl and you will see the grommet and the grommet to the interior. Cut a star in it and feed the wire through the grommet.

Oh, and thats 4 gauge going through there.

If you look about a foot LOWER, you will see a BIG TRIANGULAR rubber grommet.
Pull out the grommet and cut whatever size hole you need in it.
Then put the grommet back and push your cable through it.
The material on the inside is elastic-like, and can push your cable right through it.

I think the triangular grommet is on automatics only. It's where the clutch comes through.

He's got a SVT (manual), therefore no grommet.

Ok Eric, we cut a star in the rubber and got the wire through, but to where? Nothing but wall? I'm not finding a entry to the interior. What to do...what to do... confused

when i put 2 gauge in mine i had too much trouble finding a way to pass it through, so i just drilled a new hole. just remember to protect it after so it doesn't rust, or cut the wire. silicone worked great for that.
