how do i get past the firewall?

i found 1 point which would be a pain in the ***; where the steering collum wires go, they come out underneith the exaust manifold, but is there a better, easier way to go through? I just need to run like a 14awg line to get it to my siren. thanks!

just crawl under the steering wheel, and look for what looks like a cut out pice in the sound deadening crap (its closer to the side of the car, like above the dead pedal). well you pull that off and drill through it, it comes out in a very accessable part of the engine bay (though you may not want that for your alarm)

just go through where the hoop popper goes, easiest way and that size wire wont bother the popper any. use a hanger to get thru it on the motor side and just pull it through the cabin

There was a rubber grommet right near the fuel filter on my 96. I believe it was about 4 or 5 in. to the left of it.
