Question Passing Wire Through Fire wall

Hey guys,

I am installing an amp into my '02 limited edition. The only wiring trouble i'm having is the electrical wire. The one that connects from the battery all the way to the amp. I have been looking around the car to find a space to pass the wire through the fire wall but cant find a whole. Are there any suggestions or known places with space where i could pass this wire? Also for the remote wire from the amp to the stereo do i tap it with the blue and white wire?

Can't tell you about the attaching wires but if you follow the cable from the handle to open the hood to the firewall, you'll see that the cable goes into a grommet that has plenty of room for more wires to pass through. I have wires from my AMP, undercar lighting and my Ahooga Horn all going through the same space next to the cable.

Agree w/Crewzin.
Push something like a coat hanger thru first - it's a rubber grommet, and I dislodged mine and it was a bear to reseat, because it's hard to reach.

Ok I'm new so im not sure if someone has answered this for you all the way yet, but in my 08 if you look up under the drivers side dash to the left, you'll see a black wire coming out of a round rubber spacer(?) and I'm pretty sure you can just pass the wires through there. I'm about to do an install and i think that's what I'm going to try to do. Hope this helped
