Subject: How do I get the power wire to the amp?
IP: Logged

Message:
In previous vehicles I've had there has been a plug to run wires from the cab to the engine with out drilling a hole. But I can't seem to find one in my dakota. If someone could let me know if I have to drill a hole or there is a better way to run the cable that would be great!

If its a Gen3 Dak

On the Passnger Side of the Firewall.

There is a groment about 3/4in big.

Pop out the Black groment and its big enough for 4 gauge wire..

On a '98 DAk STL CC, I found the factory wiring harness area was to filled and hard to get through.

I managed to get a single 4ga. through the same gromet/hole as the Auto-trans shifter cable.
