    Battery Relocation Cable Run

    Hey guys,

    Currently in the process of relocating my battery to the boot of my S14a.

    Seen a few other threads on the topic but none mention the best option when it comes to running the cable through the bulkhead.

    Not expecting it to be easy but if anyone knows of the most straightforward/easy way I'd be grateful!

    Thanks

    If you removed a/c just use the holes where the pipes went through and run under the carpet. Obviously if you have a sub don't run the power next to the speaker cables...

    A/C is still in place :/ No sub though so no worries with that

    I did a DIY somewhere on this and they way I did it was by running a BMW cable from the front fuse box position all the way on the drivers side of the car through the bulkhead into the drivers footwell.
    The large grommet and cables running that way already had room once I'd enlarged the hole and removed some over taping to slip the power red cable through and then into the footwell around the little fuse box. It was no drama to add it to the bunch running along the top of the door sill and then I fished it through to the area behind the rear seats easy enough.
