How did you wire your subwoofer?

Where did you wire it to/through? Firewall? Fender? Custom drilled hole?

Be as detailed as possible and provide pictures if possible.

Don't forget the 5 W's, who; what; when; where; why? Oh and the [H]ow?

Reason for this topic, I need to find a nice way to wire my amp as well it may help other people out.

I'm stuck looking at present holes, but can't find any entry/exits through them and there are wires already there but I'm still having trouble.

Yeah that would be great! Was it hard to drill a hole that tight in? I have a V6 and its really cluttered under there.

There is a hole in the firewall that has a plastic plug in it already...

Look down in the drivers footwell not too far above the gas pedal you will see some foamy stuff.. you should see a circle cut out in it...but the actual circle piece may still be there... pull that out and you will be at the back of the plastic plug...

This is all from memory..been a while since I've looked or dealt with this....but I can get a pic or two tomorrow since I will be running new wires and such

That would be totally awesome! May I ask if you are running a 4Cylinder or V6?

V6

***
arm just to the left is the very top of the gas pedal

to the right of the hole is the brake booster... you can see the plastic plug that is normally there, i drilled a hole in it and ran my wire thru it but that will be replaced with a grommet hopefully today
