Any easy places to route the wiring for a dual DMH cutout?

I've got two 3" cutouts right after my Hooker LT's (dumps pointing outward from the center of the car), and I just got my dual 3" DMH cutouts. I was wondering if there were any easy places to route the wiring through the floor or somewhere else?

Otherwise I might have to drill holes and get some rubber grommets (sp?)

Thanks!

I dont know if the A4s have this or not, but with mine i just punched a really small hole throught the rubber shifter base, then tied it up againt the wireholders under the console.

Easiest way I guess would be to look under the car and go from there. I plan on doing that soon in the future too. Good luck.

I just did this exact same setup, its very nice. I took my wires and ran them along with my subframe connectors (yet another plus of having them) and back to the back floorpan, on each side there is a large rubber plug, take that plug out, run the wires in there and to the center console then I just put the plug back and no leaks. You'll only have enough wire to go to the center console but I have made a stainless panel for the ashtray for my switches.
Hope that helps.

Coolness, thanks guys.

Although I gotta do some cutting to get them to fit in. I gotta rip out the carpet tomarrow and start figuring out how to fit them. They hang to low, and the KB DD SFC's are in the way.

I only have 1 DMH, but have my wires routed under the rear passenger seat. Just slit a hole in that rubber grommet, and poke the wire through. Take out the cushion of course, then feed the wire up and inbetween the carpet and trim piece, up to the front, then over to the driver's side for the switch.

With 2 cutouts, not sure if you'd put both wires through the passenger side, or one on each side. Your cutouts may not even be close to those grommets either, not sure what your setup looks like. Sounds cool though, good luck!
