best way through bulkhead - rd070707 - 30-07-2014
Hi guys i need to run a power cable through the bulkhead into the cabin preferably on the passenger side. Any ideas if there are any?
RE: best way through bulkhead - bashbarnard - 30-07-2014
Remove glove box. There is a.bit of sound proffing marked sort of oblong shaped. Cut out and drill through. Its where the air con would have been put. If you have air con. No idea
RE: best way through bulkhead - Toms306 - 30-07-2014
Its easy with air con, just go through the air con drain grommet.
Or just drill a random hole and hope for the best.

where abouts is the air con one tom?
RE: best way through bulkhead - Toms306 - 30-07-2014
Its a massive rubber grommet with a small bent pipe in the engine bay, you cant really miss it lol. From inside its in the top right of the passenger side footwell. You want to go through it without damaging the pipe itself if your AC still works.

These two. Drilling the random hole goes well

Drill through right next to the aircon drain grommet, near the bottom left of it when viewed from inside the car, comes out tucked down the back of the bay, out of the way. Plus you only have to pull back the carpet a bit, rather than removing the glovebox.

some pleb had already drilled mine in the nearside scuttle area, so when rainwater splashed about it poured in from behind glovebox............quick dab of pu adhesive sorted it out. must have ran leads through it before I bought the car.
RE: best way through bulkhead - jezzab - 04-08-2014
On both of mine ph1 no passenger air bag I have drilled behind the top glove box
RE: best way through bulkhead - ct-hdi - 04-08-2014
i used a gromit just above the master cylinder to run my boost pipe through
RE: best way through bulkhead - Stevo-trendy - 04-08-2014
You can buy a bag of mixed grommets on eBay if you want factory looking seal or as above just bang some sealer over it after
RE: best way through bulkhead - rd070707 - 11-08-2014
Right guys is this the aircon grommet in the passenger footwell?

yeah thats it.
if you drill a hole use a cable gland. looks better and seals perfectly
RE: best way through bulkhead - rd070707 - 11-08-2014
I didnt think it would need sealed. Il try get one. Altough i could just use some silicone?
RE: best way through bulkhead - silverzx - 11-08-2014
It doesn't "need" to be sealed.
