Need Help Running Wire - 1998 Monte Carlo
Hello all. I am having trouble figuring out where the easiest place is to run power wire from the engine bay to the interior for a few electronics. Any suggestions?

Go over to the drivers side and lay on the floor of the front seat with a light. Youll see a healthy sized grommet up there.
I've got a 2/0 wire through mine, you can't miss it.

The best access point for accessory power wires
Definitely don't drill a hole. If you're by the alternator, you're on the passenger side.

Any tips for which area or method of entry is best with the drivers side grommet?
Pics to come!

If I had to do one today I'd run it from inside the car into the engine bay. Theres just no good way to get your hands in there on the engine bay side as youve got the booster and all the other junk in the way. Laying on the floor of the cabin looking up is uncomfortable, but at least you've got direct access with you arm. Once you've fed through enough to reach your fuse holder, you can then run the rest of the wire back to the trunk.
I'd use one of those ultra sharp mechanics pick tools to poke the initial hole, then open it up with one of those small snap off knives. Just cut an X in it and push your wire through.
