Default problem solved, thanks guys!

How do I get a wire through the gromet by the foot pedal to the engine bay? I've done it one time with my amp power cord, but I have sold my system off and cannot get any wire through there anymore. Any help would be greatly appreciated, i'm trying to finish the install on my shift light.

I used a flat head screw driver, pulled the grommet into the car, pushed the wire through and replaced

That is basically what I did also. I need to find a way to make the opening a little bigger now to fit another wire through. Might have to do a little cutting.

Yes, but where did you push it through to get it out into the engine bay. It never goes to the right place when i'm doing it...

Yep...it took a couple 10 times maybe. You will have to reach down and pull it through or use a hanger even to help pull it. If you get it through at all take it, and route it the best you can. I had to shove 7-9 feet of thin wire in there for my navigation.

Man there's like a 2" by 2" rubberized pad above and to the left of the brake pedal. You could put a PVC pipe through! I've run everything through there. It's usually covered by a piece of foam on the interior side.
