don't laugh people... not like I kept it like this but only as a temp. but I ran the 4 guage wire under the engine bay and up to the plug on the pass floor board. I did it just to see what my system sounded like. but really tho I been looking and I can't find the hole you guys are talking about on the pass side to run the amp wire. I have a 92 ex... would that make any diff?

Where to run power wire for an amp?

I have a 92 ex as well and you have to really pull back the carpet and the plug is like more left (closer to the console) middle. It shouldn't be too hard to find but you do have to pull bakc the carpet in the front which means you have to take off the kick panel cover thing and then carefully pull it back. give it another look, I know you have it.

I think as the last two people have said, i just pulled off the passenger side kick panel and found some existing holes with some black plugs. So i just ran it up the passenger side engine compartment, to the corner of the hood, then down behind the fender, and in through the holes. It's probably not the easiest way, or maybe the wire i had was really really stiff, but it was a bitch and I needed my friend to help me pull the wire through.

I ran mine around the corner of the fender and windshield on the right, then under my carpet. It might be kinda dangerous or whatever, but I set it up so it wouldn't pinch when I closed the door. I've had that power line for a good year and a half without any problems.
I ran it like that because I put my stereo in in the winter and it was too cold to find the hole under the car...so I just said "fuck it" and ran it through the fender, down the door, under the carpet and into the trunk. It's been good to me so far. *shrugs*

I ran my 4gauge under my intake across the firewall and drilled a hole through the clutch plate since I have an auto.. its very very easy to do there it sits right above the carpet so its hardly even noticeable especially if you loom the few exposed inches. The passenger side method sounds good especially if yours is a 5spd. I'm gonna have to check that out when I rewire my system when I get new equipment.

I found a hole about 5 inches above the ecm/tcm a cardboard plug with a little insulation underneath which exposed a 1.5 inch hole I ran my wire through. It was under a canister I believe for the AC. If you look under the carpet you will see indentation of the hole. I am not sure if this was what someone was referring to early in the post (if so thanks). I found it by accident. If anyone else uses this spot I would use a grommett or use an exacto knife to cut through the floor plug to run your wire. FYI I have a 91 2dr.

Originally posted by papychulo82there isn't a "right" or "wrong" way, but there is a "easier" way...simply pull back the carpet in the passenger side underneath the glove box..you should see a lil black rubber grommet..pull it inside because i do believe its 2 parts...then just leave the outer part to protect the wire and run it thru there and down the passenger side of your car...i'll get some pics of it to show you..
Thanks

Thanks
