I dont really want to hear the opinion... i know it is "ricer" to some, but i love the look...

i got a wired kit for christmas and im looking to put it in. i just dont have a good way to get the wire into the car...
i was looking for ideas, i was looking at maybe running it thru the door jams, but i wondered if anyone had a good idea?

find a place in the firewall. if u can't find a place there, make one. never run wires through the door jam. this for 2 reasons.
1. you take the chance of pinching a wire
2. it looks tacky

If you end up making a hole for the wire, make sure you get a rubber grommit to fill it in. This will stop air/moistier from comeing in and protect the wire from the metal edge of the hole. They are very cheep and can be purchased at just about any auto parts store.

they hit the nail on the head.. If you look on the drivers side there is a spot where all the factory wires go through in a grommet and there should be room to sneak a few extra wires.
