yea, thats the easiest, pull the carpet up on the passengers side floor and there will be a massive gromment you can poke through. otherwise, you have to drill.
you can get any gauge wire through with ease. the trick is to pull the grommet out into the engine bay, then use a long screwdriver to tape the wires to and push it through. I have done it 3 times now with no problems, an put up to 4 gauge wire through.

the passenger side gromment is by far the easiest way. you can also drill a hole under the dash on the drivers side, i have wires going through both spots.

I put 0 gauge through plus wires for my boost guage and fuel system.
Crack kills... But then again... So do I...

No screwdriver... Too hard, use a wire hanger. Gives you a whole lot more play. If it's like most connections for underglow, you are going to have to take apart the plastic clip on the end of the connector to fit it through the grommet.
