Default Runing wires

Hey have any of you ran wires from under your hood to the inside of the car?
This has o be the worse one i have seen for doing this i cant find a damed hole to shove them threw. and would rather not try going threw the door jam.


also have to run a power lead from the front tot eh rear of the car for the strobes i have inplace i have a switch under the hood for the time being but would rather have it in side of the car with me so i don have to poen the hood all the time to turn them on.

was wondering if an of you have done anythign like this and how ya did it.

I have not but it looks like I am going to have to do the same thing your are, I have decided to take on my box installation myself.

Let me know what you end up doing. Is it possible to punch a new hole through the firewall?

yeah you can do it. But was wondering if anyone else has done it and found a hole that was theere.

but yeah you can drill a hole just becarefull where you put it and also make sure there is nothign on the other side you might damage with the drill.


but looks like i might be doing it shortly so if i do i will let you know where and how i did it. Also have to run a wire from the back of the car up to the front to.
so i can get power back to the rear strobes.
I need to get over and check in the bone yard here for a small fse pannel, I want to run one wire threw the fire wall and then hook everything in to the fuse pannel (out of another car) so that way i have a complety system diffrent then the one in the car.

Thsi will also make sure i have a fused place and also a singel place to hook it all up with out worrying to much about having to many wires going all over the place. ( Like the whole clean look ALOT.

if my gages get here i will have the dash tore apart then i can see better where to dill the holes also. so that will help
