Throught the grommet behind the battery.

I don't know about the grommet behind the battery, but I found a way to get my wires in. Over the passenger's wheel well, there is an opening kind of behind it near the firewall. That leads into the wheel well, behind the plastic guard. Taking the guard off you will see an opening that the washer fluid for the back window goes through. There, now you are inside the car, behind the passenger's kickpanel. I don't know if it is easier than the other post, but that's how I got mine. If the other works better, then just ignore this post :)

ummm i wouldnt reconmend going through wheel well... theres a circle with rubber lining that goes from glove box area to the engine area... use a screwdriver to pry it open and slip in the wires... they will be air tight and held well. there is also one under the steering wheel but thats difficult because so much crap is in the way. doing it with 2 people makes it a lot easier too!
