Passanger side firewall, low down. It goes under the passanger's feet under the carpet.

I was about to ask the same question about the power wire. I have a 2000 GT. Is that grommet in the same place? I couldn't see it...perhaps I didn't pull the carpet back far enough.

Lemme know....thanks.

I used a stepper bit, and then custom made a grommet that fit around the
wire and slid into the drilled hole. No problems...

Oh and it is located on drivers side down low... Make sure you dont drill into the subframe. Drill further to the left than you think and you will be ok.
