GTEXXED Banned Banned 910 Member For: 14y 6d Gender: Male Posted 18/09/12 02:31 AM Posted 18/09/12 02:31 AM earth runs down left hand side of car inside cabin(like an amp cable)and the power is run down the drivers side of the car.All cables are protected by convaluted tubing and fully wrapped in electrical tape twice(like factory looms).Both wires come out of the factory large grommet hole in drivers foot well,this was carefully trimmed and still sits in place as per factory.I also run an isolator switch in the engine bay.I'm not a fan of running power cables under the vehicle body so this was the best way,I have had the interior out on the weekend and all wires are still sitting where they were and haven't come into contact/rubbing with anything.
