Ok i decide to make a diy to help people run wire through front door of ek1. I only taken some pic because when i was half way finishing the wiring i suddenly though about DIY so sorry if its i didnt take pic to show how to take of the fendor but i will explain it.
1)First off there are 5 things u must remove to able to run the wire.
Fender(guard) to be able to remove the fender u must also have to remove the front bumper and the side skirt, the glove box and of course the door trim
These are the location of the screw to remove the fender:
When you pop up your bonnet their are 3 screws inline
when you remove your side skirt there are 2 screw right at the bottom
when u remove the front bumper there are 2 screw under the headlight
when you open the door there is also another screw behind the side mirror
To Remove the door trim
there in total 5 screws to remove to take off the door trim, pull the plastic cover off from the handle(inside handle there are 2 screws there) and open the the speaker grill there is 3 screws there to undo. After all the screw is out, is a matter of giving a pull cos is still hold in place by some plastic clip.
To remove the glovebox
underneath the glovebox there are 2 side on each side, remove those and the glove box will be released.
Running wire from passager side:
After all the requirement pieces are removed, start by feeding the wire into the top left hand hole behind the glovebox (note:not the hole from the groment cos is been cover up by that big foam bloack but you can feed into the groment hole that that require you to remove the foam block which take alot of time)Once feed, from the outside of the car where the groment is locate the feed wire and run it throught the gromet plug. Now to run it into the door you must drill a hole (below the plug is ideal)
Running wire from driver side:
from side driver its easier, start by unplug the gromet plug from outside the car then feed the wire from the outside gromet into the car (note: because the gromet hole from the driver side it easy access make it easier to run, just a matter of feed the wire from the outside and you will see it in the inside.)
When all wire is feeded at the require lenght start by isulating the wire to prevent it from deteration, what i did was just wrap it with electric tapes.
