i drilled a new hole on the driver side for mine. but you can easily use the grommet. i just didn't want to risk screwing up the stock wiring and what not.

I got 16 feet of wiring and had just enough to run through the grommet, against the firewall to the driver side, and run the wire between the seat and the door sill. I just cut accross under the rear seats. You can't see the wiring. Just play with it a bit. It's about the perfect length.
Nice Solobarics, btw.

I guess I stand corrected. 01Vortec ran it through there lol.

when you say in between, did you put it under the plastic sills? or just laying on the floor?

you'll have to run 1/0 under the carpet, theres not enough room to tuck it under sills and still have them clip down. atleast there wasn't for me.

if you're feeling very adventurous you can run it under the carpet next to the trans tunnel and have a lot of play room. mine is across the engine bay (tied to the firewall) through grommet, along the tunnel, under the seats and all the way to the tailgate

Yeah, Beside the center tunnel is probably the best way to go with that thick of a wire.
