Default install amp power wire in 2006 civic sedan

Anybody know where there's an available hole in the firewall to route an amp power wire through? Its so tight in the engine compartment to even bother searching for one. Appreciate any help..

Ok i got around to it and found there is an available hole on the driver's side.
Isn't it kind of dangerous to have the power wire hanging outside under the car?

Yes it is. lol

Go to the hardware store and get some lume and zip ties that have a screw hole on them and also score some 3/4" self tapping screws. While you are at it grab some industrial waterproof tape.

Now, take the tape and wrap the wire that will be running under the car pretty good. Then, run the lume over the wire and zip tie it. Now take the screws and screw the zip ties onto the body to keep it form hanging. You can use that method but its sounds liek to me you are going to be using the drain hole of the car. Your best bet is to find a spot and make a hole. If you do that route, I suggest you grab a gromet too.
