Either with a terminal cup.

Or drill a hole, run the wire through it and seal it up real well with caulk.

drilled a hole with a drillbit and caulked that mothersuckre real well. Thickkkkkkk thick thick caulk will do.

no need to be wasting money on terminal cups. Too much work. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i like using terminal cups because of the "plug and play" factor but when i dont have the time or money, i drill a hole.

I was thinking of drilling a hole in the back of the box to run the wires out but im afraid of having an air leak.

I was also thinking of taking the terminal cups that came with my eBay boxes and use them on my box. The hole to cut out for the terminal cups is pretty easy right?

Thats what I did. A jigsaw will make short work of it.

A mentally challenged monkey with ADHD could caulk up the hole good enough that it doesn't leak.
