Default Power wire for amp in 2006 EX Accord

I'm trying to intstall a power wire in my wife's new car and I can't find a way to route the power wire from under the hood to the inside of the car without drilling which is what I'm trying to avoid. Anyone have any suggestions? and if I do have to drill can anyone help me with a good spot because I'm not trying to mess anything up? I've done this quite a few times, but I'm just a little afraid with this one.
Thanks,
Brian

no need to drill, use an existing hole that is already plugged by a grommet.

A grommet is a round rubber "boot". Once you find it you can use pretty much anything to push it out, such as a flathead screwdriver, pull it out with pliers, etc. When I did mine, I cut the inside of the grommet out, put it around the power wire, and put it back in the firewall. Check above the brake/gas pedals. They're usually easiest to get to on the driver's side.

I've looked all over but can't seem to find any. Are you guys sure they have them on the 2006 EX model?
