You can run it though your steering gromet, or simply find a good spot on your firewall, Drill a hole with metal drill bit, & run the wire, the best place I have heard & seen to run it. Are either through the center console area, or down the side of the car inder the carpet.

MODS:

-Hose kit-
-WireLoom Kit-
-Short Shifter Mod-

my 4 gauge wire runs in the firewall right between the clutch master cylinder and the brake booster. Its a really tight fit in there, and be careful of where you drill. NEVER run power wires in door jams..I have 2 more holes for my turbo wiring/gauge wiring right above and to the right a little of the steering gromet. I just drilled these holes there. There was plenty of room behind that spot with nothing really in the way. Just be sure to double check for anything in the way before you do any drilling..

if you want the cleanest most stealth install there is a nice place to get the wire in. if you remove the splash guard from your driver's side wheel well you can see where the wiring harness comes out from inside the car in the fender area. so basically if you are facing the drivers wheel, look right into the fender and find a rubber cover in there, you can cut a slit in there and run it through there, then you can run the wire hidden under the splash guard and directly to the battery and you will not be able to see much of the wire. it is very stealth, but not the easiest way to run the wire.
