Default Front Camera-Immediate Help PLEASE

Got my car all apart, currently running a wire for the front camera, where are you all running the cable from the engine bay into the interior? Rear camera went perfect, don't wanna start drilling random holes in the firewall, gotta get the wire inside. I can access either side of the motor, right or left into the engine bay but gotta get it inside somewhere...THANK YOU!!

Okay thank you for the videos I did see the both of them but didn't like the idea of running across and through the side of the car I put on my big boy pants took a deep breath and drilled a hole through the firewall right next to where the two cables come in for the hood release and popped through into the engine compartment I'll run the wire through there thanks very very much for your help got a little panicky there but all seems to be okay now thank you again

I have run them through the grommet behind the battery on the passenger firewall. I prefer this way because it comes through the footwell.

I've also run them behind the A pillar trim then down through the door sill.

Yes. Plenty of space through that grommet. I ran my 2 gauge power wire with no issues.

Thanks everyone, problem solved. Got both cameras in and all the wires hidden, the new mic set in the A pillar and set up the interface, temporarily hooked up the Kenwood and gave it a try, so far all good, NAV works, FM sounds great. Tomorrow the journey continues...
