Power wire

What's the best way to get a 4AWG power wire through the firewall to the battery on a 92 SE? I would prefer not to drill.

pull the plastic fender liner loose on the left side, and you'll see the factory grommets for the hood release cable and wiring harness.. the 4awg should fit through the hood release grommet with no problems. I stuffed a 2 awg wire through there at one time.
This time, I drilled a hole a couple inches below that and pulled a 1/0 wire through it.

damn, i finally found it. hey matt you can use this as an example of a successful search . god thats a good idea, trying to push it threw from inside just wasnt working, damnit, such a great idea.
matt knows all, dont argue with him, or well..... just dont, youll be stupid. (i know, but im tired and its almost 1:00am and school + work is stressing me out. (fyi, just playing a good song, getting in the groove and then punching the gas and just shifting like a mad man is one hell of a way to relieve stress, just have to be in the right mind set and make sure your not beating on your car))
