Underglow

I'm relatively new to this, but I'm trying to do underglow and the kit I got can be wired to the interior fuse box but I don't know how to get from there to underneath the car. Any clues? Also don't know where to hide the wires out of the way😅

Welcome to the forum, DrunkParadox!

In the engine compartment between the brake booster and the fender is a rubber grommet that passes wiring through the fire wall. There is a rubber "nipple" sticking out. Use a side cutter or similar to remove the end of the nipple and you will have access to the interior very close to the fuse panel.

i normally just use a razor blade and cut an 'x' in the grommet to the side of the main harness, just barely the size of the wire i need to push through, and the grommet still seals around it.
