Default I need some help here, large install question

Hi Guys I need a little help here. This is my first large system install in a 350Z and usually there are several locations in the dash pannel (fire wall) to thread a large battery cable through 1/0 or 4gage I am trying to get a 1/0 cable through the front of the car in to the passenger side interior without butchering the car up IE drilling a large diameter hole for the cable.

Has anyone here done a large audio install and been able to get a large cable in to the interior of the car? If so do you have any pictures of where you did it at. Since my car is a Nismo edition I dont want to cut any holes in it and modify the car in any way. I know its a tall order, I am hoping someone here can help.

Thanks in advance!

Here are a couple of links I just found by doing a search.

https://my350z.com/forum/audio-and-v...w-install.html

https://my350z.com/forum/audio-and-v...-firewall.html

I have to say, that is kind of a simple one to figure out. For someone who is undertaking a large install, you are going to face a lot more tougher challenges then how to get through a firewall. Good luck though. Let us know how it turns out.

Thank you! That is a huge help. I now know how I am getting through. The one thing that I really love about the 350Z is Nissans assistance with cable runs for 1/0 cable. I was looking along the passenger side earlier today and noticed the completely empty cable channel runs that Nissan put in place for people doing huge audio installs.

Thanks again for all your help. Its greatly appreciated.
