Running an amp power wire through the firewall?

I'm trying to install an amplifier in my 2000 TL and I'm having a hard time finding a existing hole to run my power from the battery back to the amp. I don't want to drill into the firewall myself.

There are two wire bundles that I see running on through the firewall but I can't get my arms past the engine braces. One bundle is on the drivers side and the other is a very large bundle on the passenger side under the engine fuse box.

Are there any other areas to look for?

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you!

1) Wrong forum (For future reference)
2) Look above gas pedal.. There should be a rubber grommet, pop it out with a screwdriver and u got a hole.. I ran 4 gauge wire and sealed the rest of the hole with silicone

Is this rubber grommet surrounding any wires or is it just a solid rubber piece that is plugging a hole that isn't being used?

I think I found it but want to make sure.

I don't want to pop it out yet since I'm not going to work on it today.

Thanks again!
