UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

hi all just thought id post my 2 cents worth because i couldnt find this information anywhere on this site when i was having trouble fitting my own amp.

Now you can allways find out how to wire an amp etc but getting that power lead in :S :

open bonnet - look at the engine bay just about centre of the whole bulk to the right a little you will find a plastic grommet and another grommet with wires allready going into, pierce a very small hole here

push wire through until it hits your "firewall"

then unscrewed the glove box (2 seconds) put my hand in to basically where left a bit from centre console and there it was hanging down

hope you find this helpfull
as it took me a good 30mins on the internet to find nothing and then go out and just do the above!

if i have anythink wrong on the above im sorry but im new to all this

Cheers adz

ohh thats a cool way
ahwell that will be the way with the next polo

earth is popular behind the medic kit bit, although some ppl have used seat belt holder thingy (duno the exact name)

where i have put the earth, i am extremly scared to say as its very daft
but hey it works lol

""Cough front passenger seat cough""

front passenger seat? crazy. I remember i got very mad when i couldnt find a earth point in the boot of my mk4, ended up using the seat belt thing.

Can any body shed anymore light on this for me because I've been trying to get into the footwell through that whole for ages and haven't managed to get it yet!

Cheers

I had the same prob what I did is lift the carpet up which involves taking the platic bit off thats next to the rubber seal. I then looked for a black pipe which is the washer pipe. Once i found this I then pushed the cable through and it poped out just near the washer bottle hope this helps.

i always find it easy going from the engine bay into the cabin rather than the way david did it...try n find a gromet put the screw driver thro and double check to see where it is in the cabin.

Then push that wire through, may take a few goes n some wriggling but you'll get there
