Asking for a mate, hes just bought a mk1 ford focus 1.6, hes still got all his audio stuff from his last car all ready to go in, problem being that we couldn't see an obvious place to run the positive wire(or power cable as some people call it) through the bulkhead and into the car and onto the amplifer in the boot.

Anyone got any idea's? I did sign up onto a focus forum but you need to pay to be able to use those parts of the forum.

Help would be massively appreciated.

Thanks Adam

no, nothing obvious, had a good look around but found nothing, was going to take the scuttle panel off on the passengers side tomorrow as i think i might find something in there just wanted to see if anyone on here has come across it before.

the focuses are pants for, as Lozarus said you got to drill hole through bult head and then cut piece out of sound proofing behind dash to run the power lead, also sugest running the phono leads down the center of the car as you wont get asmuch interference that way

oh and MK1 & MK2 are the same cars, just had different engines in them, and the head lamps incorperated the indicators on the mk2 where they were in the front bumper on the mk1
