Where to run the Power wire in a 06' RSX???
Hey everyone, my girlfriend just ordered a 13 Ov.2 and a Nine.2x from Elemental Designs (my idea
) and I'm going to install it for her. Now I know how to do all this.....I did my own and a few other friends cars. But it's all been older cars (mines is a 96 teg) and it seems that these newer cars have a lot more restrictions.... I can't find an area in the firewall to run the wire through. My teg was a sinch since everything was just....right there in front of your face. Now with the RSX there's so much crap in the way I can't find a good spot. Anyone have an RSX that's ran their wire before and can tell me where or better yet even have a pic? BTW it's a Type-S with the Bose system if that makes ANY difference at all which I'm sure it doesn't.

punch your own hole through. Get a nice titanium unibit and just drill a hole through and seal it up with silicone sealant or something.

Well, I've never had to do that before....so I'm a little weary on that :/ I usually just find a wire or something running through the drivers side firewall and run it with it. I'd hate to have to drill a hole through since I never did it before.
yeah punching holes through factory harness grommets is stupid(unless its totally empty). You could easly cut or damage a wire to something critical.
If you have an auto, look for the clutch punch through and use that. else, its so easy and cleaner to drill a separate hole theres no reason not to unless you are in a hurry.

Well it's a Type S so it's a stick....but actually I found a really good thread over on ClubRSX that I think is perfect so I'm going to try that. Thanks for the help guys. If all else fails I might try something else.
pics or ban when you're done.....and make sure your girl is in them....
