Default Power wire for Amp

I have a '90 accord and ive had a hell of a time running the power cable to the trunk i was just wondering where other 4th genners ran their wire. i couldnot find holes in the firewall so i ran it along the passenger side throught the front fender into my door sill ill post pics later.

This is the drivers side grommet, should be towards the top of the engine bay right on the firewal....

there is another spot to run the wire. let me try to explain this...

peel away the passenger carpet, exposing the firewall. There should be a grommet right in the metal wall. Push grommet, and it should fall out. Now you have a 1" hole to run your wire through!! I accidentaly found it, but I found it to be cleaner of an install that the other side! hope that helps.

Thats where I ran mine....Altho you will need a Rubber gromet to put in there or you'll get a cool/warm breeze on your left leg as you drive around...I got my rubber grommet at Pep-Boys.

Good Luck

Mike

It really depends on what side you want your wire on...I wanted my RCA's down the passager side and my power wire down the drivers side....
