isnt there a hole covered by a grommet on the drivers side?, there is one the passenger side as well, ill have to take a photo cause my boost is hooked through the hole....

but as far as i can remember, glovebox out and all other trim pieces underneath, then the black plastic vent, which is held in by a screw then somewhere in the middle just use a torch depending on when you do it?...

look for the grommet its pretty much adjacent to the Abs system just at the back either that or have two people, someone looking from the engine, and someone inside the car, soon as you find it, the person looking at the engine will see your fingers, im no expert and explaining things but hope it helps at least haha!!

There is one near the top on the drivers side, im sure there is a pic around the site of this somewhere.

You can get to the other side from the front of the drivers side footwell up above the pedals.

Hope this helps.

if you mean from the engine bay to the inside of the car then there is a hole that goes from the engine bay down into the passenger wheel arch then there is a grommet that ends up between the door hinge and black plastic ecu cover from memory ( take the passenger wheel off and the plastic shroud, will all make sense then). i think this is also where the water hose for the rear wiper goes

i ran mine into the wiring loom's rubber boot just cut the tiniest slit just enough to push the cable through. and also battery power for my carpc also goes through this rubber boot. bit of a pain to get to but looks tidy when done. you have to remove the charcoal canister bracket to get to the two 10mm bolts that hold the boot down.

there is the hole on the drivers side above the steering column. its already got rubber flap bits on it so its fairly weather proof. thats where i run my boost gauge wires and will be running other gauges through there.
