[QUOTE="Frraksurred, post: 89421, member: 544871"] In the event you can't find anything big enough to slide that big of wire thru and you don't want to drill the firewall I have a suggestion. When I could not find a factory hole large enough for my power wire I ran it [I]underneath[/I] the car along the frame, making sure to steer clear of exaust and brake lines or cables. I tucked it up next to the floorboard where you couldn't see it and zip tied about every 18"'. I did have to drill under the rear seat but acces was much better and with a gromet and sealant I have not had a single leak or ground problem. If you drill be sure to file edges as smooth as possible, use a gromet to protect your wire from cuts and wear, and seal the hole. Also make sure to drill at a spot where the wire will not have to bend, but can remain straight. That will prevent wear and cuts as well. Just a thought, hope it helps. God bless you. [/QUOTE]
