where did you get the power cable into the car?

mk4 ibiza

buying an amp and sub tomorrow but how do i get the cable into the car,
all the other cars iv installed things into were easy/hardish but this looks a lot harder, not many gromits

where did you other ibiza owners run the cable?
looks like it would go through under the plastic trim under the windscreen but i cant see how thats held on.


ps. i have looked back loads of pages but cant seem to find anything.


thanks

thanks buddy

how do i get in under that plastic trim under the window.
1st gromit is fine but then its under the trim where you need to get then to push it through the next one into the car.

i cant figure out how to get it off

well i got it done yesterday morning. started at 8am and it must have been 11:00 or 11:30 by the time i had done.

all i can say is what a pain in the arse! out of all the cars i have ever done installs on or anything this was the worst, how many screews do they need to hold a glove box in lol

Hi there, I'm having a similar problem on my Cordoba. How did you get the power cable into the cabin thru the bulkhead? I've got it through the first grommet but I can't find where to get it into the cabin. Thanks in advance

The linked thread on ICECavern has a picture of the inner grommit under the scuttle panel.

Thanks, I figured it out last night, it was behind the air filter for the interior fan/heater. Very awkward but got there in the end. Thanks for the help
