Am just posting this because after running cables through firewall on passenger grommet; for dcdc charger mounted behind driver seat, and switch for spot lights, and that be a major PITA, I found another rubber grommet behind the two heater hoses entry through firewall.

It is easy to pop out to drill a neat correct size hole; very solid, oval shaped with two tabs to pull back in place, no existing cable running through it, easily accessible from engine bay and under dash. Not sure I put mine back in the way it came out.
As it is quite close to exhaust some heat insulation around any wiring in that location wouldn't hurt probably/

Hopefully others might find that info useful.
