i had a simple question.. I have an 01 Ford Taurus with the 3.0 vulcan engine.. and i was gonna run an amp power wire through the fire wall to power a 4 channel amp for my speakers and i already have an aftermarket pioneer deck in there.. i just needed to know of any safe spots to drill or if there is a grommet i am missing.. cause there is the brake booster and the abs stuff and the power steering rack that i dont wannna tag when i am drilling.. so has anyone done an 01 taurus before?

On vehicles that give me a hard time, I just cut a slit in the boot where the steering shaft enters.

Yeah, I drilled my 01 Taurus just directly under the brake pedal linkage from the inside. Pushed a coat hanger through until I saw it from the engine side.

no need to drill dude. i have a 01 taurus ses and i just pulled down the fender well plastic crap on the driver side and there is a boot for what you want in there. just b cautious of the spring when u run your wire. i tied mine up w/ zip cord and drilled it to the body. hope this helps
