For the center cable is it concealed or does it go right over that hump or inside it?

It's between the carpet floor.

What size would you recommend I run for the power cable so that I can run only one? What size if I run two wires?

Can someone recommend a component system for the front in which the new tweeter would fit stealth in the stock tweet location.
I am thinking about the following speakers:
Polk DB
Infinity Reference
Alpine Type S

I'm actually trying to find a suitable location to run my power cable. I've looked for grommets in the engine bay and can't find any good ones. Honda's used to have a plethora of grommets but it seems they've done away with most of them. I've seen how others have run their cables in the automatics, but it won't work for me since their run just happens to be where my clutch master cyl is.

I guess he has money to burn. I'd rather waste my money on parts that actually make my car faster, hookers, and drugs. Fucking amateurs. :

Unless you're running huge power for an SPL system, you only need one run of power cable. I can't tell you what size power cable to run if I don't know the total current draw of your amplifiers. Answer that question first and then I can answer yours.

I've fit a set of the Alpine Type R's in the stock tweeter location. I'm sure you can get those to fit if you're somewhat handy.

There's a grommet that you can use on the firewall. It's to the left of the steering column. It goes into one of the "frame rails". I route power wire through there and out a hole that's below the fuse box in the engine bay. I'll show you when I come down for the BBQ. If you have time for a quick rendezvous this weekend, I will be in LI on Saturday.

Thank you Tim for the opening to use. If you hadn't said anything, I would have never known. I don't think I'll be able to ride out this weekend because I have a friend coming up from Miami to chill.
Also, now that you mentioned that opening, I just might have my sub and amp installed before the BBQ. Maybe even have a fiberglass box in there as well.
(If I don't fuck it up like that phone/ MP3 holder I tried making a while back.)

I'm sure I'll be shooting you texts or some shit when I start the glass project. I have a pretty good understanding of it, just don't have the experience with it.

+1 that's where mine is, Holla! It's a tight squeeze to get to from inside the car. I would recommend using a metal hanger and taping the power wire to it and get it thru the hole. It's better thru here since the battery is on that side.

That's exactly why I want to go through this one Billy. Besides, the less power wire used, the less amount of current drop due to the length of the run.

Quick question: the Accord EXL comes with a factory 270 watt speaker system, correct? I have to admit that my factory audio system is badass (i'm no audiophile), and it's a hell of a lot better than the factory Bose system in my mom's Tahoe.
