I watched the Audio install videos ( Video#5 Audio Install In a 2009 370Z on Vimeo #5 specifically at 2:00) and that spot he ran the cable through is actually filled on my car (auto vs manual?).
Are there any other places? I was going to meet up with bigaudiofanat this weekend to see where he ran on the passenger side, but the driver would be much better. Anyone know of any? I through about running up through the shifter area, but with all the movement in there, figured that would be a bad idea. Currently I have the cable run around the firewall using the area between the body panels, but it is very visible and definitely not the best option. I have looked the car up and down and havn't found anything. |
to be honest...it is too simple to run the power wire through the passenger side. the battery is on the passenger side anyway, and there is a grommet right there. you can easily poke a hole or unwrap the existing wire and push it in. this was probably the easiest car ive ever to run the power wire and ive worked on about 5 different cars. took me a few minutes.
if you need the wire to get to the drivers side you can just run it through the passenger side and under the dash to the drivers side, behind the climate control and in-dash stereo (which im assuming would be removed if you were installing an amp anyway)
