str8dwn Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 From battery to inside firewall: http://www.legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1312191&postcount=15 After that, you can either run it down the trans tunnel under the console like I did or choose a side opposite any RCAs or signal wiring.

Andreu Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 For some reason my break fluid resivour is in that spot. That must be the diffrence from the wagons. I did find a spot on the other side by the down pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whobaru Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 My car didn't have that grommet, so if you don't, then if you make your hole precisely in this spot, you can run a wire fish through and see where it comes out in the engine bay. Cut the rubber/foam insulator with a razor knife, then use a unibit/step-bit to make your hole. I used a plastic grommet to finish off the hole. http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x312/kagenmateer/IMG_2929.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FJuan Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 ^^There's a plug there that you can use next to the brakes. Here's a few pics from my install. My amp is under the drivers seat http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7d731b3127ccebba81bde290000000036100AZtHDZo1bt2KA http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7d731b3127ccebba8e5fea86f00000036100AZtHDZo1bt2KA Inside the quarter panel going into the cabin.

whobaru Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 ^^There's a plug there that you can use next to the brakes. Wasn't big enough for my 4 gauge. I had a few options for 8 gauge, but not 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreu Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 I found an opening by the glove box in the engine bay. anyone try this spot before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whobaru Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I don't think anyone has. I looked over there, but didn't see anything worth the effort. Seriously though, if you pop a hole exactly where I did, you're money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whobaru Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 If you make your own hole, just make sure you use a grommet. Over time, the sharp metal can wear through the jacket on your power wire and cause it to short and blow your fuse, or possibly cause a fire.
