pro3mark Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 This isn't going to be too helpful, however, there is a rubber bung where i believe the brake lines are routed through, there is multiple threads on it, have a search.

BenLAST Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 IIRC theres a gromit on the passengers side of the bulkhead. Look for that, cut a slit in and poke the cables through it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dj Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 New user to all this!!my route sounds bad to start with but worked. Being 19 i wanted myslf a sub, got my mates xplod from him with amp for 40 quid. my routing was simple after being told by halfrauds that i would need to remove most of my dash to fine the wireing loom. drilled a 5mm hole above the blower fan, and in the blower air box. sounds crude, bing driving with it 2 months all told no problem. All i did was ise epoxy resin to stop the wire falling into the fan. good solution if uou ask me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will.i.am Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 does anyone have a picture or diagram or explain better where the grommit is to pass the power cable through?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusgrant Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 I dont have a photo mate but it should be on the passenger side of the bulkhead (bit between the interior and engine).. there will be a hole with wires going through it then a rumber gromet around it to keep the water out. A mate of mine did it trough there, then just find it in the interior! I remember him telling me it was a pain in the ass to to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
