Best power wire placement?

Hey I'm setting up my system, running 2 Inifiniti 10"s on a Jensen 400W amp for now from a Jensen head. But where the hell do I run the power wire through the firewall?

what kind of car? In the FC, atleast in mine i don't know if its stock or not, but there is a hole in the firewall right about where the glove box meets the center console. just push out the stopper, cut a hole the size of the wire in that, then run it through.

I just ran mine next to the factory wiring going through at the drivers side. this is on an '82, the gromet in there comes out pretty easyily, shove the new wire through, and replace the gromet.

Okay so no other advice?

Yeah, I'm going to try to pop out the rubber thing and run it with what I think it the wire harness running through the driver's side, almost to the frame. Lets see if it'll work....

the hole i used is on the passenger side and its rather large and hard to miss. Now by rather large, its probably about 2 inches in diameter. If you've got problems finding it i can take pictures.
