HELP!!! 2 AWG wire
I need to get a 2 AWG wire through the firewall. It must run down the passenger side of the car I have used the search and have looked that people have did:
gone through the grommet on the drivers side (cant do that)
have gone through the accordian tube on the passenger door (dont really want to do that)
and have went through the firewall right behind the glove box (where??)
There are 2 wire harnesses on the passenger side
people have said that they went through the Airbag sensor location on the firewall ( where is this?)
what have people done
pics are always good

Going to the trunk? Don't enter the firewall. Go down the firewall and along the inside edge of the passenger'* frame rail, then enter the trunk. Just support and loom it well, and you'll be ok. I ran my water/methanol injection in the same manner, only I ran down the other side, and attached it all the way along my brake lines.

The one on the Passenger'* side firewall.. is the one for the ECU.. there isn't any room on mine. It'* under this cover on the firewall.. you know the thing that exposes the maxifuse? That thing.
Blazin has a good suggestion. No need to use the factory holes... I if you have several wires you can run through, may as well make a custom hole in the location that will best suit where you want the wires placed. The only problem I see with the running the wires under the car, is a little water leaking through.. I think a good bit of silicone may be necessary.
