SL55 passenger side firewall access?

Tried searching here on the forums, and didnt locate anything in the SL section. I'm trying to locate a grommet, or some sort of access hole on the passenger side, to feed a power wire for my starter battery trunk relocation. Anyone that can help me out, I'd appreciate it.
