Default Easy way through the drivers side Firewall?

I seen plenty of info on running through the passenger side firewall near the battery, but is there an easy path on the drivers side too?

On top of the tranny through the shifter opening into the center console area.

I just drilled a small hole on the firewall from the inside of the car. Also had another one drilled there for gauge install later...both fine..used plastic grommets on the holes to prevent from cutting the wires...

There is also a rubber grommet supporting a wire harness that goes into the brake fluid compartment. You can see the rubber grommet from inside the car if you look up over the gas/brake pedals.

That grommet you are talking about is where I run all my wires through.

Same here. Since this is a left or right hand drive car the firewalls are almost identical on each side. There is a nice size grommet that you can see better from inside the cabin.
