I'll let you know right now that you can run power wire from your battery to your trunk without drilling any holes.  I can get pictures in a few weeks, but it's too damn cold outside and I'm too damn busy packing up my shit to move.

The grommet in the fire wall is right about where your clutch pedal would be (to the left of the brake pedal about 3-4 inches up), very noticeable. I ran it from the grommet right behind the panel where the interior fuse box is and under the panels of the door steps straight under the rear seat from the back floor panel.

No it doesn't, just make sure you run the wire on the driver side since the battery is located on that side! Run your RCA cables and remote wire on the passenger side to reduce interference. I'm NO expert  Lips Sealed but my system sounds good and the setup is nice and neat!  Wink

...good luck!

Run your remote turn on wire down the same side as your power wire.  Keep all power wires away from your RCA's if you want to prevent induced noise.  I'm no expert either, but I am a licensed MECP installer and have an extensive background in electronics, audio systems, and acoustics.

CNY, just like Billy said, its that plastic grommit to the left of the brake pedal. If you have a manual, you can't use that hole. As for the year and model, it doesn't matter. The firewall is the same for all 7th gen Accords. BTW, I'm Z.

I do infact have a manual acoord.... fml.... but  any quick pictures would help also. as for RCA's im splicing into the rear speakers with one of the line out converters for my RCA's so interferance shouldnt be an issuse just need the aid on  the power wire thats my only hold up

HMmm...  lamp splicing into the rear speaker wires to coneect and RCA cable doesn't sound like a good idea bro... [smh] I would personally run theat RCA from the amp straight to your H/U. If you are running to a stock H/U I would suggest obtaining a converter.
