I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion as to where a grommet is on an 04 Alero Coupe that can have a 4awg wire pass through it. i can't find a single place. Kinda annoying.

to the left of the steering column. pull back the carpet behind your pedals and you will see it.

well i took a look today and i can't get the factory grommet loose and the other hole is too small. Anyone got pics of where they ran the wire?

i had to put a hole in the grommet for mine.... it stretches alot, and i got an 8ga through there. 4ga should be fine.

I couldnt be bothered to put it through the rubber grommet, I just pushed through beside it and I got 0/1 through there......

use a clothes hanger to bust through the rubber....then tape the hell out of the wire to the other end of the clothes hanger and pull it through. If you need to, just slice it a little bit...and emphasis on a little bit and push it through. If i get unlazy enough today i'll walk to my car and take a pic for you. But my car is in my garage which is located on the other side of my apartment complex...what a pain!

that is truly lazy. I'm going to try but if i can't get it done i'll just get off my butt and drive to my shop and have them do it.

you'll see that rubber grommet....it's tan in color w/ a black middle (from the interior)...that black middle part pulls out then you have about 2 or 3" thin tan grommet that you can poke through with a pencil if you wanted (emphasizing how easy it is to poke through..i dont literally mean use a pencil) lol....once you remove that black inner part it's MUCH easier..
