Take off the driver front wheel (after you have jacked it up of course) and take off the fender liner. You should see a wiring harness that you can follow from the engine bay to the interior.

Thanks, yeah i saw that hole , there is an engine harness that goes inside, but i couldnt find where it went on the inside. i guess i will give it another shot.

the hole im talking about is when u remove the fenderwell trim, the engine harness goes into it and next to it the hood release cable is also.

I found the hood release cable on the inside, but the engine harness wasnt next to it.

You can go that way...or you can use a drill and a unibit to drill the correct size hole through the firewall. thats what I did - not too difficult. just surround it with putty or a grommet when its all in place.

there are also already some holes that run other wires and have a rubber grommet. you can cut a bigger hole in the grommet and fit your power wire
