Where are existing holes in firewall....

I have a '95 max and I have some Raybrig fogs that started with a wireless remote but now I'm planning to actually hardwire them. I was wondering if someone had a pic to show where the existing hole in the firewall is and how to wire say foglights, to get the wires from the engine into the cabin? Sorry, I would've searched, but it seems to be disabled again. Thanks in advance.

get a flashlight, get under there and start looking. There will be a grommet with wires going through it, that's what I used for my power wire.

Turn the wheels all the way to the left, unscrew/unsnap the rear half of the fender liner on the DRIVERS' side and fold it back.

You will see a LARGE rubber grommet with wires running through into the cabin. Just use a screw driver or stiff wire to poke/pull through into the cab.

You can always drill another hole through the cabin firewall. I have a bunch

if you look behind the intake manifold (just below the top) left of the center line you will see a fairly flat rubber circle about 1.25" in diameter. Pull it out and then crawl under your dash, its not a perfect alignment but surely good enough.

Don't go crazy with the harness grommet and use a sharp object (screwdriver, etc) to jab the area between the wires. Soft grommet area is good.
