As the title suggests, im looking for the best (Read: Easiest) way to run cables from the boot/fuel tank area, to the front. (Power/RCA cables for amps.)
What panels and assorted bits and peices do i have to remove and how do i do it. Reepa.org is down and cannot help me no more.

Through the grommets in the panel behind rear seat and then down either sill where existing wiring is. Only have to remove back seat and sill covers/edge of carpet.

And how do you remove the edge of the carpet? There doesn't look to be any screws so i guess it just pops out? The grommet through the firewall, is that easy to access from inside the cabin too?

ahhh sorry, i should have been more specific in what i asked. I see the grommets from the boot to cabin, as i already have half the car apart. I wanted to know how to get from the engine bay to the cabin. I see the grommet on the drivers side, just unsure how easy it is to access from the cabin is all.

yeh you go through that grommet. just push your power cable through it from the engine bay as much you can.
then get in the cabin and the cable should come down somewhere near the pedals. might have to reach your arm up and grab it. helps with 2 people one pulling and the other feeding it through.

It might be a bit hard to see the grommet in the firewall from undeneath the dash, as normally it is blocked from view by the floor material. However, there is an oblongular(sp?) piece cut out, you just need to remove it.
Mine wasn't cut fully, so pushing the cable through the grommet didn't pop that piece out.
