Fit firewall once and for all
does anyone have pictures or description on how they got through their firwall from the cab to the engine bay? where exactly they pushed through? please help me because i have a lot of need for wires to battery but cannot seem to find a good place to push through.

Are you only talking about pushing through a gromet or seal? If you have anything more than a single 10 gauge wire, I doubt you'll find room. You're going to have to drill. I personally haven't done it (yet) but will soon, and I'll make sure to take pictures.

either way brother, drilling, gromit, anything i just need to get through my firwall to the battery preferably through an area around the foot petals, and im looking for experienced responses and or pictures, some help basicly. Please send pictures when you do bro

There is a large cable bundle that goes through the firewall behind and below the battery, but it was so hard to get at -- from above or underneath the car -- that I could not even get a 'fish' wire through it. I wound up routing my auxiliary light wires through the shift lever boot, which is a long, long way to run wires; I had a pre-built cable harness and had to extend it.

i drilled a whole near where the drivers seat rail bolts to the floorboard and ran the wires through that up into the wheel well and to the battery. It was convenient because the switches were installed on the center consoll...it works and is hidden cant ask for anything more

I got an 8 gauge power line through a grommet on the passenger side, I don't remember anything tricky about it. It was so straightforward I didn't really think about it - and 4 gauge should be pretty easy in the same spot. I'll snap a picture next time I've got the hood open.

please do i love pictures, but as you can see i have a lot of light mods, and i ran 4, 12-gauge heavy wires running through the firewall which is why i decided to drill...but please i have more to do so id love you see where you went through on the passenger side

not noticably at all, the biggest pull is from the neons and the converter boxes act as a damper for things like that so no flicker there...and all my other lights are LED strictly so the pull is much less than bulbs...i have noticed a slight flicker on the HID headlamps though but only at a stop when the ac clicks on, never while moving. and even then i only noticed it once, when trying to re create it i couldnt see it. I do however have a problem with my tail lamp assebly, whenever i press the break the parking light emblem comes on on the dash and the dashboard lights up, as though i had turned them on...i have emailed the manufacturer, the next step is to tear it all back apart...

bump!
I have GE that I hope to be running 4 gauge power in this weekend. I've read that people are getting their wire through one of the gromets (driver's or passenger's side), but I don't know how they access them. Some are also drilling, so they must have disassemled something to get at that area.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
