Default Firewall Grommet Opening

I'm trying to run a wire into the cabin on my 2008 IS250. Where is the best place to find an opening on the firewall?

Thanks,
Dave

the loom behind the battery, you really have to puncture both sides of that grommet ( from inside and outside, 2 walls)

There's a grommet that you'll be able to see if you bend down and look at the driver's footwell area near the pedals. You can run your wires through there with a flathead screwdriver.
