    See if you can find something that looks like this http://www.qsl.net/k5dh/images/m_firewall_passthru.jpg
    on your passenger side.

    This would allow you to pass the sensor wires from cabin into engine area. Everything else takes place inside the cabin.

    Is the fuse box in the passenger floor well? Is it easy to gain access to? Take another photo of passenger floor well, but not as close up. If you have easy access to fuse box there, and you can open it, take picture of that as well.

    Fuse box area using a "fuse tap" (click here to view) is the safe and typically easy way to get power and find a grounding spot.

    Unless you want to install the LED light, the rest is really pretty simple.

    Yes I believe I will be able to access the fuse box fine. I did not see the grommets that you sent a picture of anywhere in under there but I can maybe look again. The part I am worried about to is getting wires into the grill. There is a black wall case that is all around preventing access to the font area where I need to place my sensors. It appears like to me a lot would have to be disassembled to gain access there.
