NEED HELP with running power wire in my I30!!

Hey guys, im running into some problems.. ive spent like a good 2 hours trying to find openings in the firewall to run a power wire for my amp.. Its impossible! Its a 1996 I30... anyone own one and run a power wire and knows where?

I ripped off that bottom left kick panel and the side sill panel and sound some wires running to the wheel well, and i looked under the hood, and there is a small hole on top of the wheel well, but i think a bit too small for 8 guage.. I might take off tha plastic insulation under the wheel well and see if i can feed it through somehow...

Any help??!?! And help its GREATLY appreciated.. and pics would be excellent for helping... thanks in advanced..

I don't have a i30 but what i did was i drilled a hole right below the brake pedal to the left .You should check and see if there is any open metal under the hood in that area.You could also go to a Best Buy ,Nobody beats the wiz ,circuit city or 6th ave electronics store and ask one of the radio installers where they usally put the holes of the i30
