Hi everyone, I have a 2001 excursion diesel. My kids like to play their X-box on long trips buit the overload keeps blowing on the inverter. I'm wanting to wire the inverter directly to the battery with a fused #4 wire but i can't find a passthrough on the firewall. I really do'nt want to drill a hole. Is their a knockout or a place where I can pass the wires through ? Thanks Charlie

Follow the stock pass-trough wire located up by your brake master cylinder under the hood and see if you can use the same routing as them.

Here are links to pics of the plug I used for my gauges. It is part of the instructions from diesel manor for installing gauges.

The plug is on the drivers side
