Amp Wiring - Power wire through Firewall
I've got a 2002 Expedition and am looking to hook up an amp. Does anyone have a suggestion where I could run the wire from the battery through the firewall?
Any ideas would be appreciated.

hey
I ran some 8 guage power wire on the passenger side by where your feet rest. I drilled a hole and placed a rubber grommet in there. It is out of the way so your feet don't hit it or anything. It's about 6 feet long. I have my amp under the passenger seat and didn't want to run the power cable over to the driver side and back. People say there is a place in the firewall on the driver side to run the power through but you have to run twice the amount of wire.

Most vehicles have a rubber plug you can drill through and run wire. I try not to drill through metal unless it's absolutely necessary. Drilling could lead to unprotected metal which can lead to rust.
