Corvette friends,
I plan to hook up an Escort ZR4 to a new 2011 4LT (being built).

Wires need to penetrate the cabin area from the license plate area and from the front grill area.

What is the cleanest way to get them in without causing harm?

Thanks,
Sam

Welcome to the Forum Sam!!!!!! Congratulations on your new (under construction) Vette!!

Can't help with your question but be patient. It may take some time to get answers for something like this, not that many of those used here as far as I know. So just stand by. You might want to also ask in the Audio/Electronics Forum. Enjoy the car and the Forums.

congrats on the new, soon to be ride!

you should be able to run wires from the back through one of the storage compartments in the hatch area. may be able to go through the rear fascia (tail light opening) as well and only have to put a single hole in the compartment then run under the carpets. that will keep them inside. as for the front, you will need to use one of the existing penetrations in the firewall. use a thin wire to pull the wires through into the cabin. take your time and work slowly and you won't damage the rubber boot/sealer around the existing holes.

good luck and post up your results.
