As he said, the clutch grommet.

Step 15 shows a pic of the grommet, but all the other steps will be useful to you as well.

Also, if you have premium sound there is already an amp in the boot, maybe rip that out and run the power from it.

I went through grommet on passenger side just above carpet. nice and easy, plus mine is manual so none on drivers side.

Do you have a pic of this grommet, I have a manual and I need to run a 4 gauge power cable to the boot.

Thanx

No sorry no pics. But where the passengers right foot would be, just up above the end of carpet is where it is. Oval shape. big enough to run heaps of cables through.

I dont agree.

The best way is through the rubber grommet above the right kick panel and inside the right guard coming out near the headlight. This way no holes in firewall.
