Default I'm Dumb...How To Get Through Passenger Side Firewall To Wire Vtec??

yeah, i can't find any way through on the passenger side to hardwire to the ECU on my '94 hatch...i guess i can always run the wires across to the driver side and back around but that's quite a ways.

the driver side actually has a small opening around the cluster of wires going into the engine bay...but on the passenger side they're surrounded by a think *** rubber surrounding and i can't find any other way through. hepl.

There should be a gromet to the right of the battery, probalby about 6" down from the base of it. It will come out behind the glove compartment, behind the vent ducting.

Ya, it probably won't have a hole in it yet just look for a rubber "cap" I guess it could be described as. Drill through it.

I was actually able to just cut a slit in it with a utility knife and pull my wires through.

You can also go though where the a/c lines enter or exit the firewall on the passenger side. Use a ultility knife cut a small slit in the rubber grommet and pull the wires through (i use a bent coat hanger to pull all the wires through at once)
