Run a wire from battery to cabin? help

Hello. Wondering if anyone has ran a wire from the engine compartment to the passenger cabin and if so how? In SUVs I was able to drill through the firewall due to the ample space in the engine compartment but am having issues coming up with a solution with the Maxima.

Any help is appreciated!

What size wire?
There is a grommet that can be used that is located behind the glovebox, if I remember correctly.

There is a rubber grommet located behind the fuse box in the engine bay. You should be able to see it from inside the car because it's right behind the fuse box inside of the car also (might be hidden a little bit by the grey carpet insulation looking ****). You will need to take out your air box then grab a flat head and pry a little on the grommet to open it up. After that you can just run your wires through it.

I will hopefully get around to the project this weekend and will search for the grommet. Need to run an 18g and possibly (2) 16g. Thank you for your help! I will report back!
