if u remove the battery from the engine bay u can see a large rubber grommit going into the passenger footwell area. if u look right up at the back of the front passenger footwell u will see the gromit inside the car. it is doulbe rubberised though to reduce moisture gettin into the car. just run the amp power cable through this grommit then lay it under the door trim and rear quater panel interior card to the boot to have it tucked away.

best bet is to take out tht shelf under the glovebox and then stick your head into the passenger footwell and jst look up at the firewall maybe use a torch to help you find it thats wat i did

my power runs across engine bay, then through drivers side gromit...just cut a small x with wire cutters then pushed the cable through for a waterproof snug fit...

theres no need to be drilling the firewall in corsa's lol.. loads of places to run wires.

Ive got mine down the passengers side just got a long screwdriver (25cm one :D lol)..taped the cable around it and poked it through the gromit that ways its tight and easy to identify :D...after all that i ended up getting it fitted by a company anyway lol they run the bloody signal cables down the same side as power :@ now when the music is paused all i can hear is the poxy fuel filter pulsating :|
