    Arrow Firewall

    Hey guys, well i'm no techie here so I need help. I'm trying to install fog lights on my tC. Problem? Well, where do i run the wires through? Firewall, right? Well, that's my problem. . . I don't know how to run the wires through there. I have modified the switch to fit and all and now how do I run wires through the firewall is my question? I'm stuck and lost. I can follow directions really well. I just need them, which I haven't found on the site yet. I have checked the articles section but nothing.

    I do see the wires coming through the firewall from the INside, underneath from the drivers side, but from the engine bay . . . I'm blind as a bat. Dont' know what I need to remove and stuff. Please? Thanks everyone.

    those wires that you do see is where you would send it through, and i would send it through from the inside because from the engine bay, it is too far up, and unless you plan on taking strut bars and valve covers and intakes to make it easy, i wouldnt do it

    OH! ok, under the glove box, there is a panel, removing your glove box and that panel. Now look under the hood. on the passenger side, you'll see a big ole ploom of wires runnin through the firewall. Get back inside the car, reach your arm up behind the glove box area, you'll feel it, thats your spot. I Ran my amp power wire through there, its perfect

    If ya look on either side of that boot, you will see actually on that boot, a divit (rubber protrusion). It is about 4ga in size with one side (inside car) that is open and the other side (engine bay) that has the protruding nipple. The same type of boot is on th drivers side behind the cowl drain tube in the engine bay. I am using both.
