Well, you might pinch through the wire cover. Here is another way to do it..https://montecarloforum.com/forum/sh...system+project

That's the incorrect way to do it. Happen to notice any other factory wiring ran like that? I doubt it.

There are multiple holes in the firewall- out of all the years installing car audio, I can only think of a handful of vehicles I had to drill my own hole (and use a rubber grommet)- but practically every car has a usable factory grommet.

I don't remember off the top of my head where the best one is on a 6th gen; but you just have to lay under the dash and look.

The rubber grommet is right behind the carpet on the passenger side of the car. Pull back the carpet and you will see it. That is what I used.

Could you possibly give me (us) a pic of the passage? Thanks :)
