Default Amp power cable through firewall on C6

Where is there access or can I drill a hole to run my amp power wire through the firewall on my C6? Anyone!?!?!

I also am looking for a good ground in the trunk if anyone knows also.

I did this last weekend. I have some nice pics of where I drilled the hole and how to remove the interior panels. I'll get them up soon.
I also upgraded my ground from the battery to the frame. I have not gotton to grounding my amps yet.

Thanks anyway (I'll be on the road to KY tomorrow). I just finished running the power wire. Went through the fender. Put a little notch in the boot so it still seals completely. Also drilled the right size hole in the inside cap so it still seals inside also. Ran it along the side under the carpet, up to the back. Now I have to do the installing.... First I'm running to the store to get an Optima Battery if they have the right size in stock.
