Running wires
Hey, what is the BEST place to run a wire from the engine compartment into the cabin of a 1987 BROUGHAM? Before you get to scolding me, NO, I am not DONKING out my Hearse and putting a bagillion WALMART speakers into it.
By BEST, I mean
1 Without ruining any cosmetic appearance.
2 Without having to start removing too many panels/engine components.
3 Without drilling into any wires/relays and causing quantum damage.
Any help is appreciated, I'd be lost without all you good Lads. Or just a whole lot more stupid.

Re: Running wires
What gauge wire? There is a grommet under the brake booster that has other wires going through it that you can use.

Re: Running wires
At least 4G I suspect. I can make a hole near there if the wires do not fit, so long as I can manage to pull that off without drilling into anything or obstructing my pedals.

Re: Running wires
I'll have to look where I ran mine, but I think there was a boot in the firewall that you can remove, put the wire in, then put the boot back in. It's on the driver side and when all is said and done, no sign of wires being run.
