chances are there won't be any 'free' grommets. but you can definately squeeze in next to something thats already there. just use a coat hanger.

Yeah as rathies said just run it through the side of a grommet that already has wires going through it.

If your car is an automatic there's always the grommet the clutch would go through. If your car is manual, I can't help you, not familar with the model.

From what I can remember of Teena's car there is a grommet on the passenger side of the engine bay with factory wiring running through it. Run your power wire through beside the factory wiring.

You remember correctly, exactly where my power wire goes :)

Jono i think she was talking to me, since my car is a U12 it's not possible for the power wire to be going through the "same" hole. Was my bad, should've read the first post properly.
