1999 maxima owners.. How do you get wires from the cabin to engine bay?
Trying to find a spot so i can send some wires into the engine bay and other 1999 owners have any suggestions? How do you get it through?

I have a 96 and ran a 4 gauge wire for my amps. I dont know if theres a difference between a 96 and a 99. Follow the red wire. there was a plug, but i just removed it and put a grommet in its place.

yezzir. there should be a spot behind the driver's side strut mount. remove the wheel well guard (about 4-5 screws. not the whole thing) and u should be able to see where to run the wire. inside the cabin it should come out behind the steering column if i remember correctly. if i could do it in the dark with an led light, it shoudl be pretty obvious in daylight.

I think people with 99's should be chiming in because there are some differences between the years. I have a 97 and have tons of space to drill and do whatever I want. Plus I have an auto without abs. Zach's car is a whole different story.
Zack, we should probably try what KB just suggested.

you'll need to pull down your driver side fender lining, and you'll see a big boot with a bunch of wires going through it. You cut a small hole on that boot, and you can run anything throught it. All the wires that run, will end up on dirverside kick panel.

I haven't put a stereo in my 99, but when I had my 92 I just busted out the drill and made myself a hole. Just measure, line it up, and drill a tiny pilot hole to make sure you're not drilling into anything important.
