Running 4 Gauge 95 Nissan 200SX

I looked under the hood today to try and figure out where I'm going to bring the wire in, and there is so much crap on the side with the battery.  I would hate like hell to drill in and hit something important.  Anyone have any experience running wire in a 95-99 Nissan 200SX SER? 

Comments, suggestions, words of wisdom?  Thanks!

Appreciate the feedback!

look for where the main wiring goes through the firewall, see if there's anyway you can squeeze it through there. if not, see if there's room to drill, just to the side of it.. i generally base my drilling on pre-drilled stuff, if i do have to..make sure that it's clear, say, 1 inch to whatever side of the main wiring, on both the inside and outside of the firewall, then punch it

Thanks for the feedback.  I had a hard time figuring out where the wire was coming in.  You know those damn japanese vehicles don't give you much room under the hood.  I ended up puching a hole on the passenger side.  For anyone else wanting to know the ideal spot, there is a rivet just to the left of the AC drain hose that you can drill right next to.

Thanks again :)
