Hey guys, me and my buddy are trying to hide his Amp wires from routin from the fenders on his 95 Accord and cant seem to find any holes from the firewall to inside the car. I tried 2 search google n stuff but wording jus picks up a bunch of other things. Does anyone have any pics of one if there is any or any help on this? Thanks.

 

There's 2 options.

1) The foglight hole, there's a black circular grommet on the back of the firewall, it'll pop out on the left side of the ECU near the radio console.

2) Cut the main harness boot

 

That wire harness that runs over the passenger side strut tower dives down and goes thru a grommet, it goes in to the car behind the passenger kickpanel, then you could pop off the lower door scuff panels and run the wire under the carpet to the trunk.
I've seen lots of people stick the big amp wire in bad places where bare metal edges cuts into them, like tucking them under the fender, and down thru the passenger door hinge area.

The best one was the lady that had her car towed to us because it wouldn't start after having her car phone installed [shows my age I guess] The phone installer had drilled a 1/2" hole thru the floorboard for his wiring, darn shame he drilled right thru the main wire bundle right at the ECU. It was a splicing nitemare LOL

 

I brang back this dead thrad looking for the same advice.... I found the grommet near the kick panel but it goes into the fender area......
How can i get that wire all the way down to that grommet?

any other holes you guys know about for a 97 Accord.... this engine bay is CLUTTERED as hell unlike my civics or del sol I am usually working with....

 

You will have to be more descriptive. Are you referring to the rubber grommet that has the door harness in it? The easiest thing is to get something small and feed it through then attach it to the wire you want run. I use a coat hanger.

You're also not mentioning what you're trying to run. The grommet I am referring to is about an inch wide and accessible and spills out near the middle of the car and ECU area, it may be a better option than the door panel/fender boot.

 

I took a bit and drilled a hole right above the ECU on passenger side. There is an area where nothing is around and you have plenty of room. Make sure you put one of those plastic grommet sleeves around the hole so the firewall won't cut your wire.

 

On my 97' I ran the wires through the fire wall under the steering wheel all the way in the top left corner. This is where my wiring from my subs and headunit go the the battery.

 

I ended up using that hole too lol
