In an early post I pointed out where on the passenger side you can run cables easily, though I think underneath is far more practical and easier...... I never had any problem feeding it down the drain tube............ here's a pic of the position next to the blower motor where you will find a large unused grommet which comes out below the glove box behind the carpet....

I can't find where the leccy has ran the wiring through the firewall. There is a 50 amp fuse just after the connection to the under bonnet battery terminal, but from there it disappears in to a sheath alongside other wiring.

It then comes out under the passenger seat with the loom for the transfer case module. All very neat but nothing obvious.

Sorry couldn't help...

Ahh that side. Thank you I'll have a look at that in the morning. If that works I just need to run the cable carefully across the back of the engine bay. Thank you.
