I dont have pics but when I ran my wire for my amp in my civic i popped out one of the black i call them corks in the firewall and cut a hole in it big enough for the wire....I dont know if you tried that yet but its worth a shot

Yeah bro, he's right the fire wall is the best idea, and if You can't find a present hole from
The factories doing use a titanium drill bit and drill through the firewall or from the inside of the upper floor board
Towards the fire wall which ever side the battery is located.
forget the firewall, i just run it through the door joint. I have it so i wont get crimped and its been there without a problem for over a year now. I was going to run through the firewall but i didnt want to drill a hole
if u do that, go under the door jam and inside the backseat panels
if u do that, go under the door jam and inside the backseat panels
I would go through firewall down under the center consul then under the carpet to the back seat.

the proper way to run a power wire for a civic is threw the firewall, there is a grommet to the lower right of the battery if ur looking under the hood, its plenty big for any awg wire you are putting in, then run it down the passenger side to the back under the carpet. i personally run my remote leads with it just so you can have the drivers side free for rca's and speaker wire if you are doing a four channel. running them on separate sides eliminates the chance of engine noise heard threw the rca's and or speaker wire. in the back when you are hooking up the amp, if they cross paths of each other to also eliminate the chance of engine wine its good to cross them at a 90 degree angle.
