Need help putting amp power wire through firewall
Hey all I知 trying to install my new sub and amp I got into my 2005 Acura TL 6 speed. I知 having troubles finding a good spot to put my power wire through the firewall. I致e looked up on how other people have done it but I値l I have found is automatics. And they run it through the hole where th clutch is at 😏. I found one hole that has maybe the throttle cable going through it but I知 not sure. Has anyone ever done this before on their 3rd gen tl 6speed? I might actually have to drill a hole but I知 not sure.

I don't have any of my own pics, but here is another thread that has some decent pics of where to run it. Behind the right side of the engine there's an unused rubber grommet that goes behind the radio about a foot off the floor. I couldn't get the grommet out, so I just drilled a hole in it and used a fish tape to feed the wire through. The strut tower brace is hard to work around, but other than that it's really easy.

Is there another empty grommet on the firewall of the 6MT model?

It's in that general vicinity; IIRC the grommet is damn close to the heater core mixing valve on the firewall.
I'll try to snag a pic of mine if you can't find it. 6MT here.
