Well, the plan was similar to what you just said ... to hopefully run it
out the side and either under the fender well, or in the corner where
the fender well and firewall meet. I'm sure I'll have to put some sort
of hole in the firewall at some point in time. But when I do, it will be
through an appropriate sized hole with a grommet and all the hardware
will be up to par.
As for the water coming off the road, the wiring for your taillights,
etc runs along the frame and gets water too, any reason you feel that
what you and your friend was any worse than that?
