Me and a friend are trying to wire up my Vibe sub and we've finally come to a stop. We have the remote and power cable running under the passenger seat...
Now here's the problem.. We can't find any hole to feed the power cable through to the battery. Any help would be fantastic.
thanks :)
(its a GTi if that makes any difference)

I have hole in boot where the power cable goes through then tie rapped under the car then up through to the engine. Allthough my power cable is pretty good and thick, dunno if this help but works ok and no mess through car.

Cheers lads. Ill take another... look soon. lol.
Glovebox easy to remove?
two pins, they come out if u slide them using screwdriver or something similair, there should be a bung behind it in top right corner, comes out just under the pas brakes in engine bay i think, takes a lot to push if through the bung but it keeps it sealed tight

A metal coat hanger really helps! I did mine from the engine side,taped the wire to the coat hanger, pushed the coat hanger through the grommit, and then pulled the coat hanger through from the inside!

Its a little gromit, right in the passengers footwell, up behind the glovebox, if u pop the bonnet, its quite close(behind) where the brake fluid goes, thats how high u need to be in the footwell....hope this helps.....
