Firewall
If you look just behind the battery area and slightly down you will see a black grommet, pull this out and feed your cable from the engine side.Now go inside the car and open the glovebox up ( gives you a bit more light ) and look from underneath to find where the cable has come through, it takes about 5 mins and is easy to do...Good luck...

Hey GPXXX I dont know why it took so long for you but it only took me and my mate 5 mins with a coat hanger. Maybe the gromet we are talking about was allready in use in your car an the installer had to create a new hole?GPXXX wrote:LOLz...!! to be honest i dunno what cable it was but it took a shitload of effort!

Well its all wired...
took a little more than 5 minutes cause it wasnt coming through to start with, but we ended up draggin it through with some wire from a coat hanger...
Now all there is to do is mdf surrounds for splits to attach to, sub box and bolt on the amp..
at least i have some music through the sh*tty rears for now
