No, you don't want to run your amp power wire alongside any other wires. Bad idea. It needs its own path.
well i found this in looking for a way to get a wire through for power, but i dont have a drill, so i cant drill a hole through, and i just moved so i dont know many people here...
anyone know of a gromet thats easy to get to from the engine side, and als easy to get to from the interior ?

shoot..... and teh wire i got is too short to go from the bat. along the firewall, through the clutch spot(if i had a drill), and into the trunk :(
i kinda wanted to put it in the trunk cuz that the only wood i can screw it onto...
any other options beyond running it outside ? theres no punch out things in the fire wall are there ? :(
i know with the 8g's if you go through the fender, you can get into the car down by the kickpanel.

Seriously, just buy a drill. If you do any household work you're gonna need one sooner than later.
i think im gonna, i need 1 to mount the amp... and might as well get a metal bit and do this hole... ugh... maybe i should have saved a little money.....
so i ran out and got a drill and gromets... well the gromets are too big, so i wrapped the wire in a ton of electricial tape (about 6 or 7 layers) so thats how it is till tomorow when i have more time to buy the rite size gromet
cut one side, wrap around the wire, glue or tape cut shut, then slide into hole in fire wall
on another note, do i hook the remote lead to the pos or neg side of an accessory that on only when the cars on ?
hey warm can i see a pic of where u ran your power wire if u have one, im sure its just a little left of the clutch template but i wanna be sure

so im gonna wedge the grommet in my way tomorrow... then when i get a chance im gonna buy a longer wire... the 1 i got was 16feet, and i need about 20is to get it nicely wired and what not, but no one up here has wire by the foot :(
so im sure my grommet will hold up till i can replace the wirethen when i do that, ill get the right size grommet
just make sure you have the proper gauge and all
the gauge i have now just fits in the hole, so i gotta look at what size that is, then get that gauge wire, but by the foot.....
know a good place that sells it... like major company thats everywhere..... checked advanced auto, but they only have the sub kits, not BTF wire :(

That is what I did initially, but I could not get it into the car by the kick panel. I just ended up running it around by where the door jambs shut, and left it there.
Thanks to you guys, I found the right spot to drill the hole in the fire wall now, and I got my 4 gauge wire run through. :D
