hey peoples. i used to drive a 97 cavalier til that peice broke. (thank god) now i drive an 05 gts. i had my cavalier hooked up though, clarion head unit running 1000 watts to the front and 800 to my kicker L7. well. i want to keep the infinity system in my car now seeing as how its already loud enough i just wanna throw my sub in there. my question is. how the hell do i run a wire from the battery. in my cavy i had an easy accesable boot i just cut through and ran it but this one it looks like im gonna have to drill through the fire wall.....is there a way around it or is the firewall the best ticket?

I'd say just put a hole in the firewall. I did, it's not a pain in the ass like you'd think, unluss you're limited on wire like I was and could only put the hole at a funny angle.

easy... well.... actually nm.. mind is a second gen.. but a good way of telling is go on the inside... find a nice spot... hammer lightly with a scredriver... on the other side on the engine bay... youre gonna see a lil bump... you wanna hit that with the drill :)

Wish I had thought of that, I just gound a place in the engine bay that looked clear, went under the dash and guessed the same spot and hoped for the best!

you can go through the clutch plate, or there's a hughe blank spot on the firewall on the passenger side to go through. Either one works.
