Question:
Hi - Im in the process of installing the ETBC-7 kit and cant find a path through the firewall of my 2004 Honda Pilot. The video with the 2007 Pilot has a different layout. Recommendations?

Expert Reply:
If you are unable to locate an existing grommet or knockout in the firewall, you will need to drill a hole in order to route the wires through the firewall of your 2004 Honda Pilot. After drilling the hole you will want to install a grommet like # SWC8055 to prevent the wires from rubbing on the metal. I have attached our ETBC-7 help article and also included a snapshot of this article which illustrates this step.
In order to prevent fumes/gases from entering your vehicle, I also recommend that you seal the hole, after the wires have been pulled through, with a product like the Loctite RTV 598 High-Performance Silicone Gasket Maker, # LT37467.
