    Bad spot for a firewall pass thru?

    No major concerns. I am however not entirely impressed with this passthrough as I have heard using such a major factory artery can cause damage to other wiring and possible leakage? Especially when other grommets/plugs are available for use.

    Bad spot for a firewall pass thru?

    Just had a alarm put in on my 9th gen civic. This is where they chose to pass through the firewall. To me, this looks like a poor choice when there are smaller unused grommets/plugs available. The area they chose to pass through looks like the major wiring artery from the battery to the interior...

    2012 civic wont start after wiring mishap

    I have a feeling my problem has something to do with the grounding of the circuit. I connected the ground terminal to a bolt to the immediate right of the fuse box with some other plugs near it. I wouldn't be surprised if this was not a proper ground and led to some kind of a short? Before...
