ok, one question. What kind of system are you running that you'd need 1 or 0
gauge wire? I used to sell systems and VERY rarely would anyone actually need
more than 4 gauge. You can get back to me privately on that one if you want.
Next, if you are going to run a big wire through the firewall, you'd better
make sure you have room to move it around once it's in the passenger
compartment. One thing people forget about wire that big is that you can't
just bend it and pull it aside, it take a bit of room to make a bend. There
is the possibility that you could run it in the body skirts along the side of
the car, that would keep it protected and make it easier to run, just make
sure you have a circuit breaker installed near the battery. Let us know.

<< Where is the ideal place to drill under the hood so
that I can run 1/0 awg power wire? Should I just cut
into the soft black rubber grommet (4 lack of better
word) on the left hand side and seal w/ caulk?
