    Default Non Nova ICE question (rover 25 question)

    Sorry if this should be in ICE section...
    A friend has just bought a Y plate Rover 25 GTi vvc thing. We've been trying to put a power cable from the battery to the boot but its so packed in the engine bay that we canot see where the drill bit would come out through the bulkhead. Has anyone here ever put an install into a Rover 25 and can tell me where this cable can be put through please?
    Its an air con model too so the plug normally found in the passenger footwell is blocked up with air con stuff.

    maybe drill another hole mate, or feed a length of stiff wire through a grommet already in use, with your power cable taped to it?

    you should be able to get it through and existing grommit if for some reason you cant try cutting a corner off a gromit,,, failing that still, drill your own hole.
