Hi Guys,

I am looking for a bit of advice. I am trying to locate a grommet in the bonnet to get through the firewall and come out in the footwell. I am adding a battery backup to my Front & Rear Blackvue cameras.

Any suggestions?
 
I ran mine under the back window trim and its well hidden, although I still have a loop of cable when the boot lid is shut as it attached the rear window, but I can live with that.

In the link above it says to cut the grommet. Doing this may compromise the firewall and there could be a chance that fumes could pass through.

Besides - if you have a Porsche warranty that would definitely invalidate it.

 
I am based in Reading and the quote I got to fit just the battery back up was £210. Not paying that. My car is out of warranty so that is not an issue. Not sure what fumes peter was referring to as it is mid-engined. But all advice is very welcome. :)

 
I tried the suggested link. Calls not being connected to that number. Can't catch a break. Least it's Friday!
