Title: Re: any suggestions to put powerwire in firewall Post by: greg on September 19, 2006, 06:35:04 PM that's the spot i run all my wires off the battery, just drill at the lowest point possible there and it will come out just above and to the left of your brake pedal about a foot away from it. then you run it under the carpet or under the molding on the drivers side back under the rear seats and into the trunk. that's the safest way.

I ran the power from the fuse box on the left side of the cabin. I just picked an empty fuse spot and added a circuit to it. It is protected by an inline 30 amp fuse. I was going to go thru the firewall but I just tapped into the electricity there.

I ran mine up through the middle by the transmission linkage(or somthing like that, dad ran it.) So mine runs down the center of the car Title: Re: any suggestions to put powerwire in firewall Post by: Enemytoast on March 02, 2007, 05:37:37 AM I drilled a hole though the firewall just above where the brake pedal goes through. It is pretty easy to tuck under the carpet and you won't have it snaking around in the engine compartment. Just be careful of what is on the other side of the wall. Use a bolt as reference.
