Question Best way to route power wire in ML chassis?

I did a search on this and found nothing related to this topic so.....

Just going to install a basic stereo with amp in my SUV and wanted to know where you guys route the big 4 gauge power cable. The battery is on the passenger side right next to the firewall but I don't see any grommets around there. I hate to drill "blind" so can you fellas give me some pointers?

I will post some pics of the work to aid others after I'm done

much appreciated!

thanks,
rick

I just follow the main power cable back into firewall then just use a metal coathanger to pull your power cable through. Should take about 10min or so.
