Gotloud555 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Hi! Does anyone here knows how do peoples run so many wire through their firewalls?? Do they run it there or somewhere else? Must be very tricky. I saw they run it under the vechicle but i fine it dangerous especially if live in snowy weather and rain. Help here...

Toxiccasper Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Drill a hole and put in a garment to protect the wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pstone11 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 You can run that stuff under the vehicle no problems. Just make sure it's secure and won't chaff on anything. As for through the firewall.. In the sausage I ran 6 runs of 0 and 4 of 4 through the firewall, just use a big hole saw and create a cut-proof barrier out of either rubber, plastic, or leather. Easy Cheesy... Gotta use a little creativity. Check out StoneSounds to see my recent builds.Or look at the Flying White Facebook Page! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charger Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 We ran eight runs of 0awg through the firewall of my friend's CRX. No stress at all, just holesaw the hole and use a grommet.

Neo_frog Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 I have four runs of 1/0 through an existing boot in my firewall. The fourth one through was a little tough, but a little dish soap lubes that baby right up. What kind of car do you have? That might help ppl point you in the right direction. Need an install?
