I'm planning on putting my amp and subs in my winter car a 91 buick regal but i'll be damned if i can find an easily accessible spot for the power wire to run through the fire wall in this car. Is there anybody on here with experience in this particular automobile that can maybe help me out?I'll get it in one way or another but if theres a easy way that i'm over looking i'd appreciate it if somebody could point me in the right direction

If there is no Rubber gromet that is accesible to run the pow wire SAFELY into the car...Then find a spot on the firewall toward the top to keep water out and make sure inside the car there is nothing in the way...Drill a hole and put a store bought grommet in it...Make the hole just big enough to fit the grommet and there you go....

Well today i got a chance to really look around and i found a safe spot to drill .Directly to the left of where the steering column goes through the firewall its safe to drill.Use caution though as the brake lines are in the vicinity on the engine side of the firewall.not very high on the firewall but theres no room up top.some silicone and a grommet should seal it up nicely

its not really close to the master cylinder just close to where the brake lines run to the under side of the car for the rear brakes.
