Default free firewall hole in 96 ACCORD???

Hey im from australia and im trying to instal an amp in a mates 96 accord but i cannot find a free hole to run through the firewall for the power cable from the battery inside of the car. Anyone else have this problem or am i just blind? Is there a hole you guys no of, the ones i can see already have wires and cables going through them that is to tight to fit the cable in. Please tell me i dont have to drill. Pics will help aswell

This guy found a pre-drilled hole under the carpet, on the passenger side.

Should have it, the hole there is a hole directly below the throttle body as well, towards the bottom of the firewall near where the ECU is. That hole has a grommet in it and is used for the OEM foglight installation, it should easily fit a stereo gauged wire through it. It also would allow you to run the wire directly though the middle of the car along the tunnel.

I checked the fog light install instructions, looks like they're talking about the same hole. Refer to image.
