Hi Guys,
I am busy installing a Amp and Sub in my Versa 2011 Hatch.

I am still using the stock radio(have high-low converter already, and done the wireing from the back door speakers.)

I cant seem to find a place to pull the Power cable from the battery through the firewalll (Please note that this is a Right hand drive Versa).

How did you guys that have amps installed provide power to your amps? or where is a hole that I can pull it through from?

Update : Found a solution to my problem..
Pulled it through a rubber insert by the front door and let the cable run inside the top part of the fender.
Looks neat

..
Now to figure out how to do the remote wire, to switch the amp on and off with the radio..

Any pictures of the wiring being run through? I would be interested to see. I plan on doing an amp as well.

While I was busy with the install, I took pictures of basically everything.
I love this hatch's boot. I have also hidden the amp away underneath the boot floorboard where the spare biscuit wheel is.. hehe

I will try and see how quickly I can create the how to.. from what I have read, mine's wire colors where completely different so I had to test + play the guessing game abit.. haha

If you want extra info about a pass through the firewall, there is one behind the airbox in the engine bay. This is what I used to get my cables through to my amps. Link below has pictures that I referred to for help.

I used the same access route as Red Alert posted.

I did see your other post, did you pop a rubber grommet in the hole afterwards? Without one eventual wear and tear could cause a short.

In my 2012, there is a spot underneath the driver's side dash that looks like it was made for running wire. There was a precut hole in the padding, and nothing on the otherside of the firewall. I drilled it out and plopped in a grommet.
