zebedy Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Im going to run a 4-5mm Thick amplifier power cable from the battery to my new amp contained behind my passanger seat cubby hole (ive got a roadster). So.....is there a readily available access for the cable to come through the fire wall on the passanger side. Had a quick look and cant see anything obvious there to push the cable from the engine bay into the cab. cheers Zeb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Yup there is one, behind the battery right hand side there's a grommet, make a hole in this and you should end up fire wall behind the dash. You'll have to pull back the carpet, take out footwell plastics. Then get some bathroom sealant to stop rain water getting in and around the hole you've made in the grommet.

Fluke Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Next to the batter and fuse box you will see the cars wiring harness. Carefully cut a slit in the rubber grommet that contains the vehicle wiring harness. The amp power cable can then be fed down into the passenger foot well. Make sure you re -seal the cut with silicon sealant to stop water seeping into the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebedy Posted September 12, 2014 Author Share Posted September 12, 2014 great stuff. thanks. - Front speakers are being powered with just the head unit, and the amp 800w x 4 will power some large 8 x 6 mb quart componets behind the seat, cutting into the bose base speaker panel and the cubby door. Hopefully!!! lol - Ill post some pics up as Im doing it. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Be careful not to cut your hands too much when doing the driver side speaker wire routing through the door loom connector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
