Technical Power lead through bulkhead

[JackFi]

I looked at all the threads on here but can't find an answer. I'm wanting to get my sub in the Bravo but I can't find an easy way to get it through the bulkhead grommet. Anyone have any idea or another way to do so? Also any pics would really help.

Thanks in advance.

Found a way in the end!

So basically I ran the cable down the wing and there's a small gap at the bottom of the wing which leads to the door and just pushed it through there by pulling back the bottom of the arch liner.



I then managed to find a spare little grommet above the one that houses the wiring that goes into the door and pushed the cable through there which is double skinned and need to push the cable down towards the others wires going into the car.





Then I pulled up the side bits and made the wiring tidy.





Will be fitting the sub soon but waiting for some other bits to come in the post

I pulled cable through firewall grommet behind pedals

Being in the UK, the grommet is behind the glovebox as we're right hand drive. Which makes it extremely difficult to get anything through it. Took me 2 hours to get a cable through it!

Hardest thing I've ever done with the bravo! Wish i'd of found this!

I dont think so
On LHD gromet is behind pedals, and cable comes out behind break servo, cant see it, only by the feel, plus i have above it LPG filter with sensors and pipes.
Never spend so much time on pulling one cable through one peace of rubber.
I spend two days looking and trying different ways and tactics

You are both right, on a rhd like you said there's one behind the brake servo and comes out behind the glovebox also direct behind the pedal just under the carpet there's a blank grommet.

Bought some wire feeding rods from QD today. I am going to put 3 wires through for towing relays. I intend to remove the glove box
. This is half a dozen screws ad the glovebox light wire to remove and then it looks like you can use a spike to make a hold in the rubber grommet taking the main wires through from the engine bay. I expect the wire feeder will push through and the wire can be attached to it with tape and pulled through from inside. It will probably be fiddly but does look feasible.


If you find a better way please let me know!! Thanks

That's roughly what I did
Quite fiddly but it worked for my cruise control!

Just don the job three wires through. I would not try this without a wire feeding tool and glovebox removal is required. Its done, but so am I good luck to anyone else trying!!!
