I found a large rubber plug blocking a hole to the bottom left of the battery but behind it appears to be a lot of white cotton wool type material and solid metal behind that!! Anyone done an install on one of these cars and know where to put the wire through?
Any photos would be a great help.
Use the hole you found behind the rubber plug you can use the rubber plug as a grommet, just poke a hole through it. The material you found behind the rubber plug is insulation/sound deadening material. Behind that may even be some heavy cardboard type material... just poke a wire coat hanger through it.
The only pic I have is of the rubber plug, you already know where that is.
Good luck,
