Amp Power Cable - Hole? - bigcheez2k3 - 28-11-2012

Trying to run the power cables for my sub but having trouble finding a hole for it to go through from the engine bay.

On the Ph2 DT I just put it through a hole where the alarm siren would normally be. This is a Ph3 and the intake for the heaters is in the way. There was a power cable already there but that went under the door seal which isn't ideal, especially as mine are 4awg, so a lot thicker.

Run it under the car, along the brake lines, then through a hole in the floor...

Pull the carpet back under the glovebox and there is a bung for the air con I just drill a hole through there and pull the cable through.

exactly this. you have to take up the carpet to run the RCA and remote cable anyway. I drill just to the left of the rubber grommet. Try not to go through the pipe if possible but it is only a drain for the system anyway!

and of course make sure that you arent drilling into anything on the engine side! cant find any pictures but ill do a guide when i do it on the estate!
