    i ran mine through a rubber grommet that i slit a hole in under the hood on the passenger side of the firewall. it comes out under the glovebox inside the car and just run it down the passenger side under all the door trim and under the rear seat.

    under the ecu on the firewall is a rubber grommet you can use... OR drill a small hole next to your clutch or where the clutch would be if you have an auto trans.. DO NOT go through door jam since closing the door can fray the wire and short your whole car.. you can go under the car but then risk bottoming out and ripping the wire...
    safest way is firewall along side the door sills under the carpet then under the rear seat to the trunk.
