Firewall opening US version location?

[ColoradoMike]

Hello folks!

Well I’ll be damned if I cannot find a pass-through in the firewall. Canny posted a video from a RHD model that would have been perfect for my Wolfbox 900 tri pro bumper camera where a grommet was located. Unfortunately mine does not have this.

Does anyone have any suggestions for routing wires from the cabin to the engine bay?

Thanks a ton!

The pass though used by Canny is not available on US models. Cannot remember what uses it or it is not there, but it is not available, as you found.

Once a US solution is posted I will add it to the links. I just made it clear the Canny video only applies to RHD cars.

Thanks Doc! Worse some to worse I could find a way to go under the vehicle but would rather not if I didn’t have to.

Not sure if this will help - but at around the 7:40 mark he talks about where the passthrough is on US trucks.

I just watched this and will see if I can’t find what he is talking about on mine this evening. Thanks for the rip!

There are indeed rubber hole plugs in the fire wall just above the footwell liner to the hard right of the passenger well and to the hard left of the driver well. The passenger one is easily seen without removing the trim panel. The Driver one is hidden by the trim panel but it is there with factory wires running through it.

I used the lower left side small grommet to run a wire from the engine compartment to the vehicle interior. It was a little difficult. There were no other wires running through it though. MY 24/1 US build.

Thank you Sir! Finished the Wolfbox 900 Tripro bumper but will wait til tomorrow to do the firewall run. I’ll most likely go your route and will have a few beers waiting on deck when I start swearing and tossing tools…..lol!

I’ll be certain to document it all to help the others trying to figure out the bumper camera run!
